Buying a new Desktop

Post by Fatal-M »

Hey fella's ,

So i decided to buy a new desktop and im pretty much over the limit i wanted to spend for a desktop, im around $950 with a monitor. ive been building desktops for a few years now so i got what it takes to put it all together and i know all about the techy stuff so you guys dont have to explain everything for me :)


here are the parts i choosed :

I picked some of the stuff for this computer,i imagined it would be less than 900 but i was wrong , as far as i wanna spend is 900 dollars with the monitors and shipping , if you guys wanna help me pick new parts for a cheaper price with somewhat a performance close to the ones i picked that would be awesome .. any insights or idea's would be appreciated !

Thanks :)
