System Build Help

Giantrobot · Jan 16, 2014

Hello thanks for stopping in on my thread!

Here is the parts i have picked out from my system.(please ignore the headphones.) http://pcpartpicker.com/user/giantrobot/saved/3ozE

Now does anyone have any ideas of how to make this build cheaper without taking away any or little performance?

What will you be doing on this build?

GTX 780 is on par with Titan but is cheaper
8GB RAM=2x4GB is enough
ssd 120 GB
case Corsair 300R windowed
