But if i do that then i cant have my OS on the ssd with my core games like i planed D:
And if you look above then you will see the real prices.
 


FPS / Graphics details difference between this GPUs is worth not taking SSD :)

@DeathRabit The place where im buying this from doesn't have the GPU and the closest one to it is $510.
And i'm sure the 960 will do just fine for now since league of legends and CSGO and Infect Z are the only games i'll be playing right now.

+I have a sorta good GPU in my computer ATM

something must be severely wrong with that game because even the biggest AAA games don't need so much lol. Oh well take the build I posted above and replace 8 with 16.
