I'm looking for advice on a build I've been putting together. This'll be my first time building a pc.
My budget, for the pc only, not including peripherals, is around $1,200. I'll be using it for high-end gaming and CAD (autodesk inventor). I originally planned on getting the amd 8350, but I found the i7-3770k for a ridiculously low price so I decided to go with that instead. Anyway, here's the build, any advice would be greatly appreciated:
