900$ Gaming Build Help

[kBRYCE]

Hey guys, first time build here, I'm graduating from highschool soon and have some spare money from work / graduation gift and decided i'd like to build a gaming rig. I've been researching a decent amount the past week and a half and picked out a possible build.

That Asus 870 is not recommended for multi GPU due to being 16/4 when both it's PCIex16 gen 2.0 lanes are populated and for far less u could actually land HD 6950 2GB and CFable hehe

$712AR
