I am thinking about going for an intel build, because AMD FX processors need more expensive motherboards because of VRM cooling, and its making me kinda nervous. My budget is $750, and i deducted around $350 for the gtx 970. what would be a good build for $400 dollars (I already have a copy of windows 8, so dont include OS).
