HiTechObsessed :

The 970 chipset is a very welcome upgrade, but IMHO not at the expense of a CPU cooler and lesser quality PSU. ...the bigger thing here we both missed is that this build needs a monitor.

HiTechObsessed · May 20, 2014

That power supply is just as high of quality, and has more headroom for future overclocking and longevity. The fan can be added later, and when on a tight budget, not absolutely necessary.

But good point on the monitor lol completely missed that. Revised (and only a few dollars over $800):

Thanks for the builds might star looking to build one soon or save some more money. And buy one without a monitor then buy a monitor with it
