How do I remove about 100 dollars off this PC/setup?

ThePCPicker24 · Apr 22, 2017

By squeezing in a gtx 1080 in my build, I did go a bit off pricepoint. How do I remove about 100 dollars or more off this build/setup?

By the way, this is my setup after months of tweaking and I think I finally got it!!

Unless you have a real need...change Win 10 Pro to Win 10 Home.

More than $100 off zero performance loss (well maybe 100mhz less oc from the CPU cooler, you can go back to your h7 if you want)

Oh I didn't catch the pro thing there's another chunk off. There is not really a need for winpro anymore.

Don't go for the Hyper 212, get a better cooler instead. You can save about $70 if you opt for a cheaper monitor like the Acer GN246HL (still 24" + 144Hz), also a cheaper keyboard. You can still get a nice mechanical keyboard for around $30-50 less as long as you aren't totally stuck on the idea of getting matching Razer peripherals or something. You also probably won't be needing that additional HDMI cable as nearly every new monitor in existence comes with a cable for every supported output interface.

Thanks, removed the cable. What "better cooler" do you advise?
Thank you

BTW, changed the monitor, thats gonna make my long road to triple monitor 144hz ten times quicker. From 2100 to 1870 dollars, I love you guys xd
