New Gaming PC- Final Build Check

[warhammer1]

Hey all,

Here is my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JHtRYr

With the help of the folks over here I have put together my first PC build. I am looking to put the order in either tonight or tomorrow and wanted to just double check everything before pulling the trigger. I am mostly interested in feedback on whether all of these components are designed to work together (I am brand new to pc building) or if I can save a few bucks here or there. This is the overall price range I want to be in. Any feedback about compatibility issues is very valued.

As a note, I have included the team elite 1x8gb of RAM instead of a 2x4gb because I managed to find a combo deal on Newegg that saved me $25. I understand that the 1x*gb might be a little worse (hopefully not too much), but I plan on putting another 8gb stick in there at some point.

Any and all advice or critique is welcome! I am about to buy this load out, so I would like to make sure I am getting the best build possible.

Thanks in advance. It is appreciated.

TJ

Looks like you've got a nice mid-level gaming pc build their. Although I'd personally go with 6GB of Video memory rather than 3GB. I'd also go with a Intel wi-fi adapter, nothing against the one you have I just prefer the Intel network adapter. Other than that I really like all the other parts you have picked out. I hope this helps good luck with your first build.

Thanks for the response. I live on the top floor of a house and am quite far from the router (aka a floor and several walls). Will an intel wi-fi adapter perhaps have better range than the one currently in the build?

I believe so, because what I've found in the past is that when it comes to network adapters Intel makes the best ones.

Better WIFI the cards that have the antenna fixed to the back of the cards do not work as good as one you can place higher.
