Opinion on parts for my first pc build.

Badgerworks · Apr 3, 2015

Hi everyone,

Just choosing parts for my first pc build, and I'm on a relatively tight budget (about $1400 Australian). I've spent quite a while digging and put together a list of parts (not including case, but I want to spend less than $100), and I was hoping to get some other opinions before I go ahead. Anything you would change? http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/VHfLnQ

Thanks
