I'm building a $1500 gaming pc. I built this with a few things in mind:

1. Has i7-4790K Processor
2. At least 2-Way-SLI
3. Prefer 16GB ram, 8 maybe

Anyways, here is my build:

At the top I said that I really only want to use the 4790K (The new Devil's Canyon one)

And I'm using for gaming and some graphics design (mainly Skyrim weapon mods and such)
