Thoughts on this computer build? ($800 Budget)

boesen · Nov 5, 2016

Looking for input on my computer build. All comments/feedback is appreciated, I'm looking for speed in both everyday use and in gaming. Note: I know there's no hard drive or optical drive, I already have both. Thanks! Pc build -> https://secure.newegg.com/WishList/MySavedWishDetailPrint.aspx?ID=27511071

Looks good. R9 Fury runs very hot and is one generation older though. You can consider the latest pascal/polaris cards in its place for better dx12 support. And also get a better quality power supply.

The i5-6600K does not come with a CPU cooler. I believe you'll need to buy one, or if you don't plan to overclock, step down to a 6500.

No reason to buy an outdated card when you can get a newer one for the same price. Swap in a GTX 1060 or 1070 for that price. If you want to stick with AMD for some reason, get a R9 480.

The GTX 1000 series is much more power efficient. Get a lower W and more reliable PSU, like the EVGA SuperNova G2 650W

I don't know a lot about that Case Brand. I'd look up some of the guides on Tom's Hardware. Look at the Corsair Carbide series, Silverstone and NZXT.

Last, consider an SSD if you don't have one already. You'll appreciate the everyday performance boost and loading time reduction from that, more than a few 100Mhz of CPU speed.
