I'm working on a first time build. I'm building this PC to prepare for VR. That being said though I like having power and want to be able to run almost any game out currently or coming out in the relative future at ultra settings. Since this is my first time building a PC I would like some input before I jump in. Here is the parts list I have put together: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/nZBc23 What would you guys do differently, where could I save some money, etc. Anything will be appreciated. Thanks!
