I decided to build a computer with either a 980 or a 1080 graphics card. I have a 1400$ budget, and wanted to get opinions on good parts. I'd like the computer to be vr ready since I want to use my oculas on it, but as long as it's a good computer, all is good.

I was considering that processor. was 100 dollars cheaper then the i7 processor I was looking at before. Is this a pretty solid build?
