    [SOLVED] 8700 (non-k) or bust!

    [SOLVED] Worth buying this 3 month old system?

    Why is the price absurd? when I add those bits up together they came to quite a lot more than $1000?

    First PC build need some help. Compatibility check, better parts for same price stuff like that. Love quick answers :P

    I agree with Logainofhades. Plenty of decent gaming rigs running that i3 processor but very few running a 750ti. Could even go a 1050ti for $220 and save another $45 if you really wanted to. Would still be a better option than that 750
