Hey, i'm new here. I need to make a order and i'm only using newegg.com
I don't need a monitor atm but if you see one thats cheap and good let me know.
I don't need OS.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125684&cm_re=gtx_970-_-14-125-684-_-Product
just looked at this card looks pretty good. Is the card better compared to other 970 cards?

I just got a 4k vizio p series I would like to play on sometimes so 4k capable would be nice.
I would like to OC
I like intel stuff more than amd and would like a 970 or two of them if possible.
Could blackfriday discounts be factored in if you browsed?

Some quick help on this would be so cool

I might buy something from somewhere else if amazing discount! lol

also I bought a 5.1 blutooth vizio surround system with the tv. Would I be able to output my audio from the computer to a blutooth surround system? Sorry if a dumb question

If you have access to a Micro Center they have some insane deals on motherboard and CPU combos. I just picked up a Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD3H and i5-4690K for $280.

That said I like the build that was posted earlier but I'd offer this as well:

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i 77.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler ($75.99 @ NCIX US)
Motherboard: Gigabyte...
this should max any game you want i would go for sli 970's for optimal performance.

Pretty nice part list. Some things to go over with you.

i5 4690k or i7 4790k? I think the 4790k is also discounted right now too.

Would you say the mobo you picked out is really good for sli and OC? if I needed to go over 1600 it's possible.

Noctua NH-D14 I heard is a really good cooler but it costs more is the one you picked out close to the same cooling levels?

Last few things.. I read about that GPU which sounds great but does anyone know if it is very loud? I read a few comments about it but i'm not sure if they might have just had a more defective unit sent to them.

EVGA 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply or that xfx?

is that a good promotion price? I could just get that SSD sell the game it comes with on ebay then still get another cheap 1tb drive?

If you don't need operating system it comes out to a little less than $1600.
