(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok so I haven't bought a new PC in years (and I mean like since 2005-06) and I've never built a PC before but I want to do one now instead of buying a pre-built one. Like I said I've never done it before and need opinions / suggestions on these parts and if you have anything better for the price or performance, let me know. I am on a budget of around $800 so I can't go all out on everything. Anyways, let me know if I messed up or if there's anything better:

So anyways the price comes out to ~$815. Any suggestions? Or does this look fine?

And then on another note I was looking at this Dell PC

It's $800 but it looks pretty good. Compared to the build above? Better? Worse?

840 are slow, just get a 64gb one its just for the OS

Alright, :y: I'll get the 64GB one You must login or register to view this content.

If you plan on overclocking your CPU i suggest you get a good aftermarket cooler. hyper 212 if you prefer air coolers or a Corsair Hydro series cooler. if not, save some cash and drop the "K"

still thinks intels overclock well, and the hyper 212 is a good cooler, and the corsair coolers arnt that great. if u get a big air airy case a dual fand dark knight cooler will kick the shit out of a corsair closed loop cooler

I found a evga 660 2gb for $197 us You must login or register to view this content. trying to save you some money i have a 660 a very good card

and dont go for the 660, go for the 650 ti BOOST. better.

660 is faster by quite a bit the 650ti boost is meant to compete with 7850 1gb and low clocked 2gb 7850s You must login or register to view this content.

considering its significantly cheaper. every penny counts xD

You do realize that the mobo he has will fit in a 200r? I have no clue where you're pulling this information from but it appears to be from your ass. Of course no disrespect towards you, but you can look at the form factor and the physical dimensions. And if he goes with the EVGA GeForce GTX660 SuperClocked it would fit perfectly...
