There is my build, I also need to make it cheaper maybe to about $1500, what do you guys think I can change?

Do you need 32gb RAM? Two monitors, realistically, you can build a great pc for $1500 not including monitors. Those 970's are insanely expensive.

I didn't include the monitors and shaved it down another $700. You might want to give up the idea of overclocking and get an I5-6500, and an H170 mobo.

I'd be willing to bet you could get 4TB of storage for cheaper than $250. I just bought a 2TB on Amazon for $59. Also, if you're trying to drop your total cost, ask yourself if you really need some of these features. Could you live with 2TB of storage? Probably. Is a $400 motherboard necessary? Definitely not unless you plan on overclocking, and even then only maybe.

I think you can save money on your motherboard, case, ram, HDD, and possibly your power supply. Looks like a sweet build though, I'm jealous!

The graphic card seems a bit over-priced. With the 1070 coming out, maybe wait, or just get a $350 cheaper model and sell it for $50 after 2 years.

Also if you are going for 750W, maybe go for the P2 model instead of G2?
