I need the rest! I want this all to be close to $1300, I don't need a monitor, mouse, keyboard, or any software, just parts.
What can i downgrade or upgrade but not loose power? Or if you want, post what you would build with $1300.

Thanks!

Are you gonna be overclocking? What's your usage for new build?

I'm looking to build a computer that I am able to do heavy gamin on but also be able to render video and store a lot of pictures on, I am going to school for photography and I need something that will be able to keep up with a lot of memory and not slow down. I might be overclocking in the future, but when I first get it I am not going to.

You are aware that for a gaming rig the 3770K and 16GB of RAM won't be of use right? If that's the primary use. I wouldn't purchase that Kingston SSD either.

I'd try something like this:

he also will be rendering videos , and for this overall price i think it's good.
and what's wrong with the hyper X SSD it doesn't have any issues and it is fast as hell.

 

[chrishamy716]

My primary uses for this computer will he rendering video, uploading high quality photos with lots of memory. Steam games, browser base games such as runescape (I know up don't need a great computer to play), and doing school work on, I like the first computer built, but I would want to change some parts, like the ram, I don't new anything specified towards gaming. I would like to use some more well known brands so I don't cheap out in a sense. I can go a bit over $1300 but nothing above $1500. Also I would prefer to have an i7, the ssd's because you simply can't beat how fast they are, and 16gigs of ram. Thanks for all the help!
