What is the best gaming pc I can get in my budget in July, 2016? I already have a 1TB Hybrid Drive and a Supernova 750w power supply. So excluding those what parts do you reccomend around $700 - $800 (I prefer to stick closer to $700)

Here you go:

This is an overclockable build. However if you absolutely never want to overclock than you should go for a little bit cheaper H97 motherboard. You could also remove the cooler, to bring you to 700$ but that is up to you, i did not include an OS. So if you need one you can include one or i make the build a bit cheaper. (Probably a GTX960 instead of 970)
 


permalink dude.
 


Looking at to be final date and the fact that it is next year, I would say that only sensible thing to do would be to save.
Unless things go totally belly up, prices WILL drop in that year with new things coming out.
 


Didn't see the 2016 part, if true, it's way to early to even bother asking this question, things will change a lot in a year.
