Hello community!

Here is my build so far http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/3O4tG

I'm not too sure about 2 things: First the PSU and second the GPU
I would love some feedback!

Here is some information:

I'm from Canada.
Interested in playing and streaming mainly League of Legends, some Diablo3 and Starcraft2.
Want to dual monitor (1080p maybe higher).
One monitor is for the game itself, the other for stream options, playlist etc.
Budget is $1400.but can go a bit over.

Thank you for your time!

Made some adjustments:
Gtx 770 is a bit better then the R9 280x
I also added a 1TB harddrive I assume you forgot that?
And a 620W PSU is better especially if you want to overclock your CPU I would really suggest 620W. 550W would be insufficient if you want to overclock.

Thank you for being someone who knows how to build a gaming pc for 1400 everytime i see someone make a build for that money get 16gb or ram or do sli. I like yours tho you spent it on good quality parts the way it should be done. I like it as is although the prices are steep for the cpu psu and ssd here in the us i can get the i5 for 230 and the ssd for 130. Im not sure about canada but i would shop around a little more i defiantly think you can get that PSU for cheaper at least.

I do not need that much storage, and I can always add some as time comes.
Also I'm checking deals everyday to make sure I get the most out of my dollar!
Thank for the suggestions! Keep them coming =)
