I fixed some issues, including the unusually expensive processor, lacking GPU and overpriced HDD. Also, an FM2+ motherboard for Kaveri, nicer case, dual channel RAM and a good CPU cooler.

 

 

Ok! well i'm going with this.. and probably will just buy all the parts at the same time which might be in a month or 2 so Thank you TheSLSANG for the awesome build!

Well that is good. It is also the same exact thing as Austin Evans $600 October PC. Get a blue, not a black there will be no performance increase. Also I will be the first of many to say that a FX6300 will be a LOT better.

That's a while from now. Parts and prices change frequently. Plan later.
