Ive been all of the forums for a week now, and im sure some of you guys have seen my many questions. But I think ive found a build that will get me what im looking for. Which is 1080p stable, at least 60 FPS gaming on AAA titles coming in the next few months. But I brought it here because im obviously a novice and need advice. I did go for a rgb theme, or at least tried... don't make fun of me too much
