so this is my build so far. I've got about 1,600 to spend which has to take care of the pc the monitor and some speaker, so about 1,300 for the pc itself. I like this build because it's super compact and it's the only mATX that can fit two Video Cards for SLI although people are telling me i should just go with one gtx 770. also i heard that the i7 is unnecessary since most games dont take advantage of the extra threads. let me know what you guys think. thanks.
