I asked you guys for help last week about building my own PC but someone bailed out on buying my car so I had to delay it. Now I'm selling it for less than I wanted and was hoping to get some better deals. I basically need help deciding on one of these combo deals or for someone to hook it up and make a cheaper build than I have.

Here's my build I'm looking at now, help make it cheaper! Or refer to the combo deals below.

Things I want in it: 1070, i5-6600k or i7

http://pcpartpicker.com/list/3jfsXH without a case but I REALLY want the 760t.... or something similar

Combo deals that seem interesting:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.3026625
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.3025471
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.3071156

Buying this all TONIGHT.


Also, do online retailers add tax based on the state you're in? Would suck to have to pay 10% for living in washington on a 1k machine.

Looking at Overwatch, No Man's Sky, Elder scrolls games, More RPG oriented games, probably some MMO's

/e

I linked the combos bc they include a case, and are similar in price but some include larger SSD's etc

Ghot... he is trying to save money. This isn't one size fits all man.

Help me figure out why you are posting those combos when the parts list you linked is less expensive? and you are trying to save money.

For instance, this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.3071156

I can sell the keyboard and water cooler for prob 140-150, which makes the total ~1k. That would be the same as my build but with 8gb more ram and more watts from the psu.

And if there's not much to save then that's ok.

On the other hand, would it be worth it to dump 100-200 more into it? I'm just trying to decide if I want to build a new engine or a decent PC at this point, I guess.
