not bad at all.

pretty good, but i would make sure your ram is either 2x4gb or 2x 8gb, i cant tell if yours is 1x8gb or 2x4gb. and you can save a lot of money getting a smaller ssd, like 128gb.

As stated previously this build is not bad at all, in fact it's very capable and will max out anything and everything you throw at it.

do u guys think i need more RAM & less SSD?

peter026 :

The RAM is easily enough for gaming and the SSD depends completely on how much games and programs you want to install on it.

Danbuscus25 · Mar 5, 2014

well, if you are only using 1 monitor and are only using it for games, then 8gb is fine. the less ssd is your decision, if you want to pay more for more ssd, its your call. but i personally would get 128 gb.

so u guys think its ok performence wise? cause its just for gaming...i might settle for this build as long as none of u guys see a problem with it. should i build it myself(never built a pc before) or should i get someone who knows what there doing?

Looks good. You should be fine putting it together as long as you have seen a pc put together before, or watched videos.

Just take your time and dont rush. Double check everything.
