Hey guys,

I am build a new system from scatch and needs some input. I did all the research about a year ago but ran into some life issues that delayed the build. but ready to continue. using most of the research from a year ago here is a system I threw together and need some critical input.

System function: primarily gaming

Budget: honestly I would like to stay about 1000.00 how ever I hate skimping when it comes to builds, so I can strech that if needed to more of a 1500 range. But any inpute to reduce cost would be appreciated.

I apologize if I missed something or made some idiotic error with matching componets I have been out of the game for a while.

Total as of right now sits at 1300 roughly. with input I hope to gain either better optimization of componets performance wise or something more cost effective with only a minor dip in performance.

Thanks for any and all input.
