Gaming Pc Build

[guy9988]

I was looking to build a gaming pc using my current case but replacing the inside components. I was wondering if this was a good build

Are you OCing? Also, why are you crossfiring?

Few changes I would make, better quality, PSU and I am guessing you already have a case since you never selected one. Changed the board and CPU cooler, Motherboard and CPU to something that will OC well

-Better get FX Piledriver/Vishera processor,
-Better get single more powerful GPU, than 2 weaker GPU's
-Better get Seagate Baracuda non SV version, SV versions are for video surveillance and are not optimized for home use.

Here is something else for your budget.

The 750w PSU is for future upgrades, so you won't have to worry to change it if you will be installing high end parts down the road
