Question Is this a good build for the price?

[gyeung743]

I’m trying to keep this build right under it at $1,300. So I was wondering if this build is good enough for 144Hz gaming. Thanks.

Change the PSU ,that one is poor quality. Look for a decent 650w-750w: Seasonic Focus , Corsair RMx , EVGA G2 or G3.

So is that basically all I need to change then? Otherwise everything else is good for 144Hz gaming.

144hz 1080p, maybe on medium mixed with high settings on most titles.
and yea the psu is the only bad thing, personally id go for seasonic focus plus.

I would do something like this - lose the liquid cooler and the 1TB Intel SSD. And instead this would be a better purchase for $1300:
