Hey everyone, I've put together a build after lurking around here for a month ago and would like all suggestions to improving its performance for the price. I'm looking to get suggestions on my 740$ budget gaming build that'll hopefully run most modern games on high-ultra settings. I live in the US but sadly I don't have any microcenter near me, I'd also like to only order from one online store. I've put together a build for around 750$ before rebates/after shipping check it out and please keep the budget under 750$(before rebates).
