I know it's over budget, but it'll do w/e you want. It's all compatible. Works fine, lasts a long time.

Stop telling people to go over budget. They list budget for a reason. Either adhere to it or stop offering advice.

You don't need to spend damn near $1500 for a decent PC.

Here man. Make the drive and get a hell of a bargain: http://www.microcenter.com/product/467635/G313_Desktop_Computer

It's essentially the performance as your build except $200 under budget instead of $250 over budget. :D

Here... this is most likely exactly what is in that PC: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DrLgpb

Now you do a build that's $1000 and has the same parts/performance. I'll wait.

What even is your actual build? I don't think you build anything?

ITT: Ghot says a i5-6600k/GTX 1070 build is "crap"
