Hopefully this will become a sticky, with the amount of times I post on these forums something better become a sticky.
Just wondering how you other builders would have done your first build differently, knowing what you know now
As for me, my build is actually a compromised spec build even though it's still very powerful, but I would class it as being on the mid-high end borderline.
Knowing what I know now I'd have picked the GTX 770 over the 760 as they're only £50 apart (can't remember the prices when I built though) and the 770 supports custom LED lighting and is more powerful, but the 760 is so far run everything maxed out. That's pretty much the only thing I'd change other than maybe using a dual band WiFi card over a single band one, and maybe getting media card readers (although the absence of them is not missed).
Your turn
Rules of the thread are, there aren't any really
you can post pics of your build if you want
you can list the spec of that build of you want
if you can't remember your first build or are no longer a first time builder, you can use your most recent build
I need to remember to make threads like these a discussion in future
