I need your opinion!

vohh

I need your suggestion on what I should buy for a gaming pc that im going to build.  This is my first time building a pc.  I will be using the pc for playing lots of TF2 and possible Overwatch and basic internet browsing.  My budget is $800 - $850 and id like to keep rebated to a minimum.  I want to keep the monitor, keyboard, OS, mousepad, and CPU the same.  Here is the list that I have made http://pcpartpicker.com/list/mC4KBP

Get a cheaper keyboard and buy an i5. Also a 550W psu is more than enough.

If he can get the 650W cheaper than the 550W then obviously stick with it. I was just assuming that the 550W would be less :)

now that i realize you wont be building anytime soon, i think i wasted those extra efforts going through the tiniest details... this will probably be an entirely differently build later this year

 

i get that your trying to get a feel of which parts to go for but i suggest asking 1-2 weeks prior to ordering parts...
