there's also a similar version using Intel Core i5 4670K Quad Core and a ASRock Fatal1ty H87 Performance LGA 1150 Motherboard

so is this a good built for the money i usually built my own but don't have much more then $1500 to spend

first question which would you recommend the AMD or intel version and would 8gb of ram be enough.. (i could always add more later on)
 
woah hold up that's a good deal? They put down the motherboard for $130 and on newegg its $94 and the 8350 the want $279 when newegg has it for $200. Right there is most of your made up 210 savings and that's just 2 parts to the whole build marked way up. If you have the know how build it yourself and save way more than there overpriced "Savings"
 
thanks for the replies..

as much as i would want to save the extra money on newegg atm i don't have the time to build it.. $1500 seems responsible (and like $15 to deliver)
