$1900 Gaming PC build

Budget: $1800-$1900

 

Aim: Gaming (MMOs, FPS, RTS, RPG) and general use (Youtube, music, web browsing)

 

Monitors: I have two 23" 1080p 60hz monitors from my old build. I want one new one that enhances my gaming experience.

 

Peripherals: Dont need.

 

Why am I upgrading: My previous gaming build was from 2011 with the i5 2500k and a GTX 780, I thought it was time. I originally wanted to go to a gaming laptop but soon realized that laptop gaming just isn't there yet even with the new pascal gpus. Temps just get too hot.

 

Here is a build I put together to see if it can be improved.

Looks like a solid build. Tho i don't think you need the hyper 212 since the R5 1600 comes with a prettey good stock cooler

Unless he’s overclocking, I like AIOs but the 212 is fine

Yea, everything I can send back if I need to though (except the GPU). I was just wondering if there was any room for improvement.
