need advice on $1100 build

Thamer_1 · May 15, 2016

So I have been doing some research on build that can get me 1080p/60fps on most games and I came up with this build http://pcpartpicker.com/user/sudeerawy/saved/PWyJ7P
I'm planning on changing the GPU to the 1070 when it comes out

Nice build minus the NEX PSU, replaced it with the SEASONIC made GS model.

what is the difference between the two?

The NEX is poor quality made by HEC, I think. The GS is very good quality made by Seasonic. Quality parts, better assembly.

Unless you are using a sound card, you might want to upgrade to a board with better sound like the Gigabyte Gaming 3 or Asus Pro Gaming.

Thank you

You shouldn't have bought that headset. Headsets have very poor sound quality. A dedicated set of headphones plus cheap attachable mic would've been far better
