It has been about 6 years since i built a system and I am a little lost with some of the newer components. I do a little gaming and video editing. The gaming consists of nothing to intense mostly WOW and LOL. My last system was purchased by my wife a few years back its an Alienware Aurora R4. Its a water cooled system with an i7 3930, 8gb of 2133 Ram, 2 Radeon 7870's its an OK system. Just seems a little sluggish. The video cards had issues so i swapped the 2 out for 1 Nividia 750 ti and have been happy with it.

i'm looking at spending about 3 - 4k on my next setup. Dont rip on me to bad I was just poking around today and this is what I like so far.

I already have monitors.

Couldn't find the case you picked out. Basically changed to Dual 780 ti, to a Seasonic X series PSU, and to a single 500 GB SSD (a single large SSD is typically better unless you have a specific reason for getting 2)

I'm so sorry for the confusion I'm giving the system to my younger brother and this is the build I am doing for my birthday. I was just using the old system as a base to go off of what i already have. I'm so very sorry for not mentioning that to the readers.

I was just looking for a little security on saved items incase something goes bad but I guess I can go with an external.
