New PC Build

[arbristow]

This is my new PC build I have come up with after researching the past few days. My budget is $2500 and I wanted to get the most up to date parts to make the rig relevant for as long as possible.

The main concerns I have are whether or not the kraken g10 is compatible with the new GTX 1080 video cards, and also if the Kraken g10 itself is compatible with the new model of Kraken x62s.

*other than that I would just love to have some feedback on my build on how I can improve it

** I used B&h for most of my links because their website is easier to navigate and what not, but I plan to order mostly from amazon and b&h, whoever is running the better deal.

-Thanks,
Austin

With the budget you have, you can get more powerful PC than you've currently composed.

At current time, in the Tom's Hardware System subforum, the submissions are going on for the Best Builds of 2017 in almost every price range. Here i suggest you take a look of $2500 budget category topic from where you can find lots of high-end builds,

For example, my submission (Flawless Supremacy) is similar to your build.
