Not sure why my build is so off priced, I didnt mean to add that ssd in the final list, total is 980 without ssd, my newegg says 1070$ with the ssd :(

Here is my final set up, sadly I had to remove the SSD which I wasnt very happy about, but I would rather have the r9 290 and no SSD then have to downgrade that to make up money! The PSU that was suggested had a increase in price then partspicker so I had to switch that as well but over all I am...

Also to answer your SLI comment Hazle I don't think I will do SLI in the future I have never done it before and for my needs sli would probably be unneeded at least for now :) I just switched that build to be all parts from Newegg only and itws down to 948$ total so thats even better for my...

Thanks for the replies again, I was originally going to go with the r9 290 but figured it might be over kill for my needs. That 2nd build cturbo posted seems perfect however I think if I switch that set up to the same thing but with the 770 then I can have enough money to fit the case into my...

Thanks again for the Hazle! I am so torn between getting the 4670k or the 4440... There is a pretty significant price savings if I get the 4440 but I am not sure if the loss in power is worth the cheaper price. I am def going to do the 770 its just a matter of the 4670k or the 4440. Does anyone...

Also would I notice a big difference between an overclocked 4760 over a 4440? The price difference is actually pretty big, plus if I don't need a cpu cooler that would save even more money. Is it better to have a better GPU or CPU? My amd fx 4170 and gtx 650 both run like crap so I am just...

Thanks for the reply Hazle. I think you are right about the SSD, not really going to fit in the budget which isn't a big deal to me. I do however think I wanna stay with the K series and cooler because I might overclock a little bit for extra boost. With the build I posted do you think your PSU...

Forgot to add, is an SSD worth the price? I only have a 500gb cheap HD in my current set up, with a amd 4170 quad core and gtx 650 on windows 7 and my boot time and super slow and loading time in world of warcraft can be long as well. So is a SSD worth the price or is it not noticeable enough on...

Hey guys I plan on building a new computer within the next week and I have decided that I am going to take out one of the 12month 0% interest using amazon or I think new egg also has something similiar and build myself a nice 1000$ or less gaming set up. I have part of a build so far from what...

Thanks numa for the quick response, and yah price seemed too good to be true! I'm not very knowledgeable with video cards but when I went from a 550ti to a 650 I noticed only a tiny tiny tiny increase, will the 770 along with the i5 and all the new parts be a substantial performance increase...

Just noticed on newegg the Sapphire Radeon r9 290 4g is 439 not 354 :( Big difference in price there I am going to have to find something closer to 350$

Thanks for the help everyone! Nunanator that second build looks exactly like what I am looking for!

Oh and lastly I am currently using a tp-link USB wifi adapter and can barely load live streams on medium quality, but I have 50mb/s internet. I have been seeing some mobos have built in wifi, is this something that I should look for or should I just buy a wireless adapter whether its usb or...

Thanks for the replies guys. The plan as of right now is to just go will a brand new build because I am really looking for something that will perform a lot better then my current set up which I have been un happy with for a long time, even after I upgraded from the gtx 550ti to the 650. With...

After more research I am leaning towards these parts so far, but I'm not sure for video card if I should go the r9 290 or the GTX 770? Or another card around that price range?
