800$ gaming PC.

[Koka Ratik]

I have a 800 dollar budget for a gaming PC excluding the case. I'm using the NZXT S340. The graphics card HAS to be the gigabyte gtx960 g1 gaming or gigabyte gtx970 g1 gaming. I don't need more than 8gbs of ram and a 1tb hdd.

What country do you live in?

 

[Koka Ratik]

In Qatar. But I'm going to order from my PC store or ship them from Amazon.

 

[MasterDell]

amazon.com?

Is the power supply semi modular?

 

[Koka Ratik]

Can you change it to the full gtx970 than a itx version please

 

[MasterDell]

Is the power supply semi modular?

No, I can suggest one that is but it will cost more.

Sorry didn't notice that the itx got in there. There are a lot of 970 Gigabytes and I think I clicked that one by accident.

[Koka Ratik]

Ga h97 is not available on Amazon and I'm fine with the modular psu

 

[MasterDell]

Try this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K2R6C9Y/?tag=pcpapi-20

 

[Koka Ratik]

It doesn't ship to Qatar. So I went for a z97 PC mate

 

[MasterDell]

Okay that works

 

[Koka Ratik]

I went for the gtx 960 and I changed the PSU to a cx500. Thanks for the build!_

 

[Koka Ratik]

Any build for a AMD Fx 8350?

 

[MasterDell]

Wait that PSU is horrible. And no you definitely do not want a build with the FX 8350 or 8320 or any AMD CPU at all. The CX series is really bad and over priced. Did you order it?

 

[Koka Ratik]

Ok I'll change it back. I need a psu with at least 4 6pin connectors beacause i meet do sli later on, so is there any psu that supports that for the same price??

 

[MasterDell]

Not really. You need a much larger PSU for that. The EVGA B2 would be your cheapest option.
