What is the planned use? Because for tripple A games at 1440P at Hight/Ultra settings this pc is just adequate

 

 

Dont forget the price is 1500+ bcs partpicker didnt count your rx480 in total price

The only way a $1300 PC would be overkill is if you're playing at 720p. Also drop the stupid AIO and get a good air cooler.

Hold on the RX 480 sapphire nitro card doesn't have a price so the total would be 1649.

[Energycore]

The only thing overkill is the 2TB WD black when there are 2TB drives for $50

totally agree with you I have the h100i and it's good but not as silent as an air could be and with a good air cooler you can get close to the same performance

Only overkill is if u use it purely for Mine Sweeper, Pinball or browser games lol.

 

480 is aimed at 1080p gaming , maxed out 1080p.

 

Ive been using this for gaming on wifi, its amazing, have a look: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00416Q5KI/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1472020088&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=tp-link+300&dpPl=1&dpID=31bm1O6%2B7GL&ref=plSrch

I find it pretty cool how you got the price at $1300 flat with all those parts.

[Sento]

Its actually around 1600$ because I forgot to include the video card price.

even if it costs that much it doesn't look that bad also forget the people that say lose the AIO if you want an AIO just get it. But if you are looking at saving any money you could probably drop the 2tb Western digital Black for a Blue there is very little difference between the two and if you are just a regular consumer I would take the Blue over the Black (In my opinion).

[Nazo]

Oh yeah, I haven't seen that the price of the graphics card isn't there

[Sento]

Tbh I might just go with a 2tb hybrid drive for storing my games and shit....

[Nazo]

Hybrid drives tend to cost a bit less or alot more than basic HDDs, they have odd pricing

What I am doing: 240gb ssd for main games and os

                               5x 2tb hard drives because NAS, but you could just use 1.

[Mk7-Golf-R]

When I think of overkill, I think of,

 

2, Samsung m.2 950 pro's in raid

2, gtx 1080s in sli

a 40 pice lane 6-10 core cpu

ssd's for the storage.

[Matias_Chambers]

It looks good to me.

for 112$ you can get 2tb HDD as fellow LBT member said and for the rest 58-60$ you can get SSD 120gb maybe even 240 if you are VERY lucky

It overall depends on what games you wanna play but the RX 480 and the 1060 are about the same 

in performance so why not get a solid 1060 for 250$ instead?

And from what I've heard the HyperX Cloud 2 is a better gaming headset than the G35 but you would also

have to invest another 20$.

Get a WD Blue instead of the Black imo. Blue is faster, not as noisy and cheaper.
