Lol why do you want to pay 60 more for a lesser performing computer? :lol:

With that 60 bux I'd upgrade gpu or mobo to Asus r2.0 mobo from Wraith build

Just go with the build I gave you. It's far better than anything else you can dream up for your budget.

Alright. I'll change my cart on amazon when I get home.

Are front USB necessary or just personal preference?

It doesn't really matter. When is the last time you absolutely needed USB 3.0?

So the sapphire r7 won't ship until like 5 days after the rest of the shit is delivered...

Is there a huge difference between sapphire, xfx, and gigabyte?

xfx has a lifetime warranty. I have had good luck with them in the past. I dont know Sapphire that well. I have never used a gigabyte gpu but I have other products like motherboards from them and they have worked well for me.

I would chose xfx just because of the warranty.

Yeah and the xfx r7 260x is a double fan gpu if that makes it any better

I don't think the xfx is over clocked though. And idk how to do that
