Can’t trickshot me!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So this is my first time building a Gaming Pc. How have I done? I was aiming for a PC that is less than 1,500 and just a good gaming pc overall. It says that the CPU Cooler and the case are not compatible, any help? Also do i need to buy additional case fans with my case, if so which ones? Did I buy a correct power supply? If i didn't what should I buy. Thanks for all the help!

Also do i need to worry about buying the cables or does each part come with its necessary cables, and do i need to buy seperate wireless network adapters or does the mobo have it? Last but not least, do i need mroe case fans, or am i good?

You're comparing a 2008 card to a 2014 card...Compare a 2014 AMD GPU to a 2014 NVIDIA GPU.

I tried using the same vendor, and ended up buying two things from newegg and the rest from amazon, total is 749.80.
Still wondering about my PSU and if im paying to much for what i really need. Can anyone list a PSU for my build. Any more money i can save on would be nice Happy
Thanks for anyone that has helped me, you guys are great!

Is this one better than my current EVGA one? You must login or register to view this content.
Im buying it through amazon and i save $5 lol. Its not about the $5, its just making sure that i dont use more power than i need to.

Last question is if i need a cpu cooler or can i use the stick cpu cooler for the games im playing. (LOL, Minecraft and modded minecraft). any is there any cheaper Mobo i can go for?


Damn dude, wtf. What is your budget? First you say $1500, now we're all the way down to a $700 build.

This build will do what you want. I would usually pick a i3 or a G3258 for budget builds, but the FX-8320 will give you better multitasking performance and it is going for ~$100. It usually goes for around ~$130. Also went with a red theme because that seems to be what you want.

You don't need an aftermarket CPU cooler for a locked CPU.
No idea why you're getting an H97 motherboard.
SSD is meh.
Case is totally up to you, but for that price, I'd pick another case. The case you chose doesn't even support 200mm fans, lmao.
Low quality PSU.

Don't get a GT 740, complete waste of money. You can get a better GPU for the same price.

You don't even have RAM or an HDD included in your build.
