using pcpartpicker canada can you make better than this? (someone posted me that build a while ago on another topic, im starting to buy the pieces now and i will keep buying them 1 by 1 from now to like 15th of december as i get $ everyweek etc)
wondering if i should go for that 3.2ghz cpu or pay a bit more for a 3.5ghz.
wondering if that motherboard is total crap or if its just cheap and effective for the cost
wondering what kind of case i should get to not have the incompability thing
wondering if 1x 8gb ram is better than 2x 4gb (i already know that 1x 8 will be better if i want to get 16gb latter but in term of performance is 1x8 the exact same as dual 4gb or what?
also wondering if a 550w gold PSU is better than getting a 650-750W silver or bronze whatever for the same price? does gold really change anything?
will be donating some fgs everytime i open a box of component (donating to people that i feel have helped me nicely thinking and shoping :D )
tomorrow ill most likely be buying that r9 390 in sale at neweggs at like 380$ because the sale ends on 30th of nov and it may also get out of stock ^^

but even for this card im unsure, alot of people reported issues with turning it off and the fans... might go for a r9 from another label (like msi or something) its sad cause this one was dirtcheap
thinking about one of those 2 now, still r9 390 but different builders cause gigabite has so many bad reviews and its only like 20-25$ cheaper i dont want to save 25$ and end up with problems.
people in the reviews says the XFX is super quiet idk if its more quiet than the msi but to me noise isnt really a problem unless its extreme ^^
also i have a question, both of those cards say 1 display port, does it mean i can't have 2 monitor with those cards?

erm... thats alot above budget (id like it to be UNDER 1500 with a monitor and operating system, the build you sent would be like 1600+ with monitor and OS ^^ for exemple count 220-240 for monitor and like 60-80 for windows (i heard you can get windows at 60-80 somewhere like g2a) so yeh a bit less than 300 for both so with the build you linked i would be at like 1650 wich is 200ish above budget

whats the difference between this 200$ mobo and the other one from my build? and you're the first one from d2jsp section to say gtx 970> r9 390
explain to me why please
i see you put a overclockable 3.5ghz CPU tho thats what im hesitating between a cheap 3.2ghz and no overclocking or a 3.5 and moderate OC like to 4ish
i can do without the 1tb HDD too, 250gb is more than i ever used in my life plus anyways i have a external 1tb that i got as a birthday gift 2years ago and never used yet
lol right now i'm on a 250gb hdd and i'm using only like 180gb of it (plus i have movies on it that when i get a SSD ill transfer the movies to the external so my games etc only use like 150-200gb anyways MAXIMUM)
the rest seems fine ^^ might get a non gold certified PSU tho to make it cheaper, nobody really told me why gold is better and if it really make any difference so
why not save 30-40$ ^^
basicly cheaper mobo/psu + no HDD and no extra fan (unless i overclock) would work?

When building a comp...any comp...the 3 MOST important parts are these:
1.
Case
...whether you are air cooling or water cooling get a case with room for growth, great cooling, and case exterior connectors where you are going to want them.
2.
Power Supply
...this runs the show...get a PSU that will
easily
drive w/e you have in comp or MAY decide to add to comp. Consider wattage AND amperage.
3.
Motherboard
...EVERYthing ur comp does, it does on or thru the motherboard circuits...you skimp here, you WILL regret it, down the road, or from day one.

o_O wow i thought it was cpu/gpu o_O
you're right on the mobo i guess... and case... but the psu does it maek a difference if its gold or silver or bronze or whatever? or only watts matters?

Yes going 4690k would be better if Ur planning to OC, but it's going to cost you more than 60 since u'll need a cpu fan which is around 35, and a better mobo as well.
For psu, as long as it's made by a quality oem, and at least bronze certified you will be fine. I'll definitely take 750w or 850w bronze made by superflower (evga b2 models I linked) than going 550w seasonic gold cert.

how about this final build.
http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/zCXfQ7
this is the best i came up with with the help of 2 people + my own ideas ^^
got a overclock mobo and cpu, a 970 instead of a r9 390 cause whatever people keep arguing with it and most agree that nvidia is more reliable and that 8gb vram is overkill... so whatever i give up
they both the same price anyways so it dont affect the build price , i can still debate/think about it and buy it last if i must..
a friend told me he'd get me windows for free too so ^^
total price is 1411, then you add like 5% taxes and a bit of shiping and its around 1520-1550total so yeh its the max ill pay forsure, i wanted to pay 1400 or less but im going for a 144hz monitor instead of a 60hz so that make it go that high i guess its worth it for me

Ppl said 4 VRAM was overkill too =P
I'd personally go 390 if Ur saving a lot more. Both are good cards
