Final Revisions

So after days of planning, the build is done, unless you guys find something wrong with it. I want this computer to play AAA titles fairly easily while recording and possibly using a VR kit in the future. This build isn't really a budget build, but I opted to get the cheaper parts of something I felt like could do the same job or close to it as it's expensive counterparts. Thanks guys.

Drop a hard drive unless youre backing hella games. Go for a semi modular PSU; they can be cheaper. Maybe find a cheaper case as well. Core components look good, maybe go for lower clocked RAM dimms.

The extra hard drive was for recording gameplay in 2k resolution and the other one is just regular storage. And what kind of a PSU are you referring to? I'm not too familiar with all the techno talk just yet. It seemed like 850 watts for under $100 was a great price. I could get the smaller version of the be quiet case, but I love the color scheme too much to part with the be quiet series. As for RAM I'm open to suggestions.

I forgot to mention I'm getting a 500 gb SSD for my birthday, and I'd rather spend some extra cash and get a be quiet orange windowed case because that's the one thing I really love.

I really love the orange and black colour too

 

You may want to consider the Pure Base 900 Orange, that has tempered glass and a wireless charging pad for phone lol

My smartphone isn't compatible with it and the case is to big. I would get it if I didn't have a budget though
