I've been wanting a gaming computer for a while now and i had the money to get one finally. I was originally asking a friend to build me one, but he was gonna charge me money for the service and i didn't have that money at the time. So I found this website which had a really good deal going a computer for about 1900 going for 1300 and then i changed some parts around to make it better. If anything should be changed let me know. Also I don't have the time right now to build it my self I am going to school and work all the time so the little time i do have Ive been doing homework but I do put a few hours into gaming but I wanted a built computer for it. Also I don't need a monitor i have a Asus monitor that supports 1080p and i have a mouse and keyboard.

Thanks! I found it the website and saw they had these deals going and the gpu and processor were good, and it seemed like a good deal for it so then i decided to upgrade some of the parts

This is a good build, although you would save more money if you custom built it rather than a company but it is still a good build and will last you a long time without becoming obsolete, have fun on your new PC!

Hope I helped :)

Actually with companies like iBuypower, it is very often slightly cheaper than building it yourself because they buy their parts in bulk and get them cheaper than we do. I didn't try to part out your system to see, but it is very often cheaper with iBuypower. The system looks good btw :) You'll have fun with it!! :-D

Yeah it can do but that sometimes depends on promos and deals in some cases it's cheaper to custom build your self.
