Hello I am new to these forums, but i have read alot of articles on here. I had a question on this pc build im putting together, yes i am a first time builder but i know quite a bit about pc's. Im going to copy paste the perma link here. I am open to any suggestions. But I do prefer Nvidia right now.

You should be able to play most games on maxed out video settings. It will depend on the game as to what FPS you will get.

And koodos to james. If you can afford a GTX 970, I think you will be much happier. I really like mine. Make sure your computer's power setting are set at the highest for better & smoother gaming.

That's a solid build. But I've made two minor changes:

- Replaced the PSU with a better quality Tier 2 PSU for lesser price.
- Changed the case fan better one with blue led that matches the other fan that comes with the case.

You've made the right choice by choosing Gigabyte Motherboard and MSI Graphics Card. Why?

Because they both make stable, durable and performance oriented Motherboards. They have the lowest RMA %. See the images below:

All other parts are solid. Stick with them.

Cheers!
