NickyG203 · Oct 27, 2016

I am planning to build a pc for around 1200 dollars and would like to know anyone's opinion on the build I have created so far.

(Price is for components only. Do not include peripherals like I did)

Note: non-negotiables include case, cpu brand, and gpu tier/performace

Thank You Sooooo Much For Any Opinion On My Build

thats a pretty good build you have! the only thing i would change is the hdd, i would go with either western digital, and or seagate, same price same size, same speed, more reliable
