I am going to compare this build to a pre-built I found and I want to see how much more I can get out of building my own. lol

I feel like that's around the same specs as the prebuilt one I was looking at.

With maybe a better PSU?

pretty much case powersupply but thats enought for me to build my own your call i mean its a good deal id make sure that powersupply of quality tho.

doesnt give much information on powersupply

Meeh old ssd, blow style gpu, bad case and bronze psu.

I do like that build, the CPU is on sale at micro center for 280 too.. but I see that every few months.


Think I can get taht mobo/cpu combo package for 380-390.

nice build was trying to save a few yours is more solid ftw no doubt

Yeah it is at my max $ that I really shouldn't be spending. lol

My wife gave me the ok for 1K but now she's super pissed that I am about to buy something.... women =/
