First time build any advice is helpfull (usa)

[Poisoncanydman]

i am looking to build a gaming pc and this will be my first build.
my price range is no more than 1250.00 usd if i can avoid it but would prefer to keep it as low as i can without using junk components.

above is the build that i have been looking into, and i think i would prefer to stick with the closed loop water cooling over air cooling just because ive always had air cooled pc's. my main concern is really the gpu as this will be the first time i will be using a "good" card i currently am using a gt630 in a stock dell hence why im looking to build a new comp. any advice on this build build would be greatly appreciated or any alternate builds . also any case suggestions and im not really stuck on the c70 case.

build time will be in approx 1 month
i do have an os
will be using 46inch 1080p hdtv (currently using as a monitor anyway)

A stronger system. GTX 770 is WAY faster than GTX 650 Ti Boost.
You chose components wrong and yeah, some were junk which raised the costs unnecessarily. Those are cut out and a better card is thrown in for $60 more than your build.

Thanks for taking the time to relpy and to also put together a better build. needless to say i am a little surprised that for such a small price difference that a gpu that much better could be had. with that being said i do have a question is there much difference in drive performance between seagate and wd. i do have both drives at home but one is in my stock dell and the segate is in my wifes stock asus desktop and in those systems i have seen no difference. to clarify im just trying to understand the choices . thanks in advance

Nah. The difference is negligible and you won't notice it in your life since both are 7200 RPM drives.

Don't worry, go for it ..
