I decided to build my own PC again. Its been a while since I built my last one (2011) with the infamous i5-2500k and GTX 580 and the Antec Illusion Steel Mid tower Case. I miss those days =(
Anyway I'm back on the PC build train again with an $1,800ish budget and wanted to see what more experienced people thought about this for pure gaming? If I had to make a scale 1 being the lowest 10 being the highest what would you rate it? I decided not to wait for Intel's 8th gen, I'm in the market now and I wont be a month or 2 from now.
