Did I get good value?

[kelvinhall05]

I recently finished my system that has an i5-750, 8gb of RAM, a 1tb HDD, an EVGA 600B, and an MSI RX 470. All my components are listed in the attached document, and I want to know if I got the best value I could. Thanks!

And a HD 7950? You can't SLI a HD 7950 with a RX 480.

Read it closely, one of the fans was dead so I didn't use it.

Can you elaborate more? I feel like I could've gotten at least an i5-2400 and a cheaper GPU.

XPS is meh

 

why is the RAM so expensive? I bought 2x4 ddr3 1866 for 75$ brand new. 

 

bought the same harddrive for 60$ 

 

1/2 fans don't work, or 1/3? 

 

where did you get a 175$ 470

 

pretty ok price for 600b

RAM is expensive because I bought it local

Same deal with the HDD, bought it local

1/2 fans don't work

Got the 470 on Amazon

600B was also local.

Maybe It was a good deal if you haven't spend the money on the ram but on a at least i5 2nd or 3rd gen with a used mobo but everything else is a good deal

I know, read the document more carefully, I listed both currencies.

Not in the PDF,  "175 CAD (~230 CAD)" I assumed 175 was after rebate, or sale price.
