So, I'm building a computer for the first time, I'm making mine a gaming pc. Mainly for me and my son.

This is my build so far:

I'm trying to make it a budget-type build, with the budget being ~$800. I saw on Alienware's website they had a computer for around $750 dollars:

I wanted to get that, although my friends did not like alienware, so I went with there advice. With my build above, I wanted the best bang for my buck. Apperently Alienware desktops are overpriced so I'm trying to make one that tops that and is cheaper.

Thoughts, opinions, and changes are welcome, thanks.
