So I finally decided to just go ahead and buy everything for my first build. I didn't need a top of the line type system, and money was a little tight so I tried to cut some corners a little bit. I am not really looking to hear people tell me I should have gone with intel or nvidia ect. Just wondering how you all think THIS build will preform on most modern games at 1080, but any and all constructive feedback is more than welcome. I plan on overclocking the cpu to around 4.1 to start with, and will probably try to go higher in the future. Thanks for any feedback you can give me on what to expect from this system.
