I've had great luck with it, use it in my HTPC, and have 2 friends with the exact same one, works great

my bad, copied link too soon, i think first build is better now, added up too quick

Until you notice the coil whine that the non-modular CX430s have.

EDIT: And to the rest of you, who's bought stuff from OutletPC and SuperBiiz?

i have from both, we're faster shippers than newegg for my the parts I'm ordering currently, didn't have anything DoA though, so no idea on customer service

something wrong with your math sir,
if i change the 270x to a 960, it's $554.93 before MIR, and $537.91 after.

yours is $567.92 before MIR, and $519 after, though i intentionally picked amazon instead of outletPC since OP wants to avoid MIR, then mine would be $527.91 after MIR. Which is like $8 more after MIRs for better PSU, and ram, otherwise mine is cheaper by $12 before MIR.

yeah, i did something crazy there

Alternative Intel build with an R9 280 for better performance:

i3-4330, which will run most games faster than the suggested FX and is more futureproof, since the mainboard will support Intel's next gen CPUs should you ever decide to upgrade.

i think she may be on to something with that memory though, 1600 prices just suck atm

I'll take more actual cores and OC capabilities, thanks.

I'll take current real world performance, upgradeability and no overheating issues without an aftermarket cooler while trying to benefit from OC capabilities, thanks.

Other than that, nice build ofc.

Thanks, that's exactly what my build is.
