Here's a gaming PC build that I put together. I'm extremely new to custom building as I just started reading more into it yesterday. I'd like some feedback and definitely better suggestions for parts. I have a keyboard/mouse combo and monitor in mind, but it'd still be helpful if I could get suggestions for those as well. Also curious about wireless network adapters and case fans, so if I could get advice for those that would be great. Please point out any compatibility errors, and since I'm inexperienced explaining things in detail will help me a great deal. I definitely want to keep the cost as low as possible, without sacrificing much gaming performance; so considering everything (monitor, adapter, keyboard/mouse) I want to keep the budget below $1500. I don't know when I'll be building this computer, but it's likely to be within the next one to two years. Thus I'm hoping for a drop in prices, namely the graphics card. Thank you for your time!
