@silverjay928 I added a 120 GB SSD and swapped out the RX 480 8GB Nitro for a faster, cheaper, cooler and more power efficient, Gigabyte GTX 1060 Windforce OC. I also got you a cheaper CPU cooler which will do a great job as well as blending in with a pure black accent. I also got you a reliable 550W Tier 3 PSU from Corsair which will serve you well when overclocking. :)
