Hello Everyone!

I've just built this system today, the idea is to play games at 4K resolution (mainly WoW) and also leave room for upgrade, maybe another 290x in the future (crossfire) and another SSD (RAID 0).

What do you guys think?

Monitor - $579.99 - ASUS 28" Black 4K PB287Q

Case - $59.99 Cooler Master HAF 912

MOBO - $69.99 GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3P AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0

CPU - $164.99 - AMD FX-8350 Eight-Core Vishera Processor 4.0GHz

CPU Cooler - $34.99 Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

GPU - $262.99 - Powercolor Radeon R9 290X 975MHZ 4GB 5.0GHZ

RAM - $64.99 CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB)DDR3 1600 CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9

PSU - $94.99 EVGA 110-B2-0850-V1 850W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready

Total: $1,332.92 + $33.82 shipping - $60 rebates= $1,306.75

Ps.: I already have a Samsung evo SSD.

You're right! I misinterpreted the specs on the card. if you visit the website, it states "2 PCI-E 2.0 x16 interfaces with AMD CrossFire support" but in reality, one is x16 and the other is x4. I haven't built a system in a long time, the little details still get me!
