Hello Everyone and Happy Thanksgiving (soon to be anyway). Im putting together a build list for my brother's X-Mas present from the family. I did allot of research here before I put this together, so I hope it is pretty solid. My goal here is to build him a system that is a mid range gaming pc. Please let me know if there is anything that could be changed to get better performance for a little bit more money or a better bang for the buck deal. Thank you...
