Advice wanted for my build.

[Quadrat]

Hello, I used to build extreme gaming rigs more than a decade ago, then I got busy with my professional career and I still don't have a lot of spare time. But I always intended to go back to this habit _ or obsession _of enjoying the challenge of building monster machines. I'm on bit tight budget these days, and I just made build in less than a hour this morning, I realized I missed a lot of fun for the past few year and my info is outdated.

I would appreciate it if you guys take a look at it and tell me of any improvements needed that would lower the price as well, all I need is future proof motherboard and I can upgrade all other things later on. Thank you all in advance

Here's the listed I compiled: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/2sRJpb

I look forward to your inputs to reach a stable config so I can start buying the items, building them is another challenge, I guess I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Thanks again.

that PSU is too high, go with 550W or 600W
and sound card is not necessary IMHO, unless you want to use surround sound speaker

its a solid build but you really dont need a psu like that unless you are wanting to do some extreme overclocking that no one has ever seen 😀

I would built it differently to make it a real monster in that budget.
