Hello all, I would like to thank you in advance for your help.


•Budget: $650
•More specific use (what games, what programs): Watching movies, torrenting, csgo & poker etc. Must have the capability to run two monitors.
•Planned time until purchase: 3-7 days
•Do you need an Operating System?: Have access to a cracked version of windows. Do I need to buy a copy?
•Do you have any specific preferred components?: At least 60 GB+ of solid state drive
•Do you need a sound or wireless card?: both
•Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?: Stock
•Do you need a monitor? mouse? keyboard?: Yes, but not included in budget
•Zip code/location? (Shipping costs): Baltimore, MD 21201

I have poked around and seen this build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/jTWdwP

I could add a SSD drive to this build and hit my budget. Thoughts?

rather than the 960, go with the sapphire 280x it's $199 after $20 MIR.

Apologies I did not get a chance to order this - I was thinking I would order from amazon prime today or tomorrow. Since prices have changed, would it be possible to redo this list using just prime? Thanks and happy to donate some fgs for your help Secksii.
