Gtx 970 budget rust

[Jsapy123]

I'm looking for a pc build. Can someone help with finding good parts for the price? I defiantly want the gtx 970 so base it around that? Budget is around 700-800

It's hard to get a GTX 970 at this budget.

For four more dollars, you can get a 970 off Amazon.

the r9 390 has same performance, if not etter, and more v-ram.. I would stick with the first build.

Eh... Depends on how you see it. I don't feel comfortable squishing my budget some more, getting less than a GS or G2 PSU. Not to mention there ain't any over-the-top case cheaper than a NZXT S340.
