My friend is helping me build my first PC for Gaming, Youtube and school work. He has followed past guides and said they have worked wonders for him. I am looking at this build and thinking that it would be easier to just follow this set up, except for a few things.
1. I do not want to overclock. I just want to keep things simple and easy and not strain the PC by OCing at all.
2. I am thinking of just taking out the SSD and waiting for a sale come Xmas or so.
Would I be able to save a couple of bucks if I get the non OC'd version of the GPU and CPU? Are there any alternatives I can look for? Thanks in advance!
PS: Maybe a better looking case as well.
