are you only planning to buy from amazon?
cuz they are overpriced... especially that $48 shipping cost for the case.


I could get free shipping with prime I believe.. but isn't there shipping costs for all websites?

nope, shipping varies by sites.
Also that case isn't prime eligible, so you would be charged $48 for shipping, and will not be there within 2 days.

For the 970, get this one

hey guys can someone help me? so I far I just made the purchase of the gpu that Secksii recommended me a couple of minutes ago. For the case I found a couple I liked, like the Zalman Z11, or Apevia X-Trooper, or Apevia X-Cruiser3 or maybe something with a window, not sure if these are good choices. For the cpu, motherboard, ram, hard drive, power supply and whatever else that remains.. I have no clue. I've been browsing through pcpartpicker the website gives me a bunch of options or variations but I have no idea which would be compatible, work well with the gtx 970 and worth the money.. I got a 1500-2000$ budget.

What is mostly done on that PC? Gaming?
If yes --> Which games are mostly played and on which monitor and in which resolution?

idk I got a crappy monitor. I would like games like elite: dangerous, diablo 3, and maybe arma 3, or even battlefield 4 to be able to run.
