Hi, as the title says I am taking my first plunge into building my own pc. It will only used for gaming (prefrably 1080p to 1440p,30-60fps) and light web browsing. I don't wanna get into overclocking just yet. Oh and my max budget is 1500$ Cad (not including windows, and any peripherals) So with all that in mind  I went of pc partpicker and built two rigs and I was just hoping if anyone can go over them to see if there are any issues and if I can save any money anywhere

960 evo on gaming pc why? And why pay more on cases and psu instead of going for 1080?

 

8gb ram may not be best for some games too, and 2133 is a bit slow

But why when you can have both?

 

Plus I would disagree, hdds can sometimes even affect fps and lower minimums.

Definitely the best build I've seen on this thread. OP you should really consider getting this build or maybe changing a couple of things. You should also post your final selection of parts when you figure out so we can make sure you didn't make any errors or a choice where there are better options.
