Hi WinniG
This is Sexybeast
Let you know that I am a Re-seller / Builder.. and can try to see if I can get you a deal on these parts.

Let me know if you would like and I can get a quote together and see if I can beat Newegg..  If I can i can sell them directly thru ebay, or amazon to make it easy or send a Paypal invoice

Let mo know what you think

~FS~WinnerGirl

That would be good! I just want to get back into gaming when I want instead of always console gaming lol, anything that helps tho!

Needs a bigger SSD I would say, and to decide on air cooled or water cooled. You definitely need a PC!

for $20 or $30 more depending on sale pricing I would consider the GTX1060 over the RX480...
I don't think the RAM matters as much when you compare benchmark test results

Still many things to consider but all is appreciated, I haven't built a desktop since Cod2 was most popular if that says much LOL

I use this site to compare video cards, they also do comparisons for CPUs, hard drives, RAM and whole systems even....
http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

I like that you can look at a long list of all cards, use your keyboard to search in the page and find a specific card, then another to see how they rank against each other - there is also a searchable list and compare feature built in

Edits to my list thus far adding the GTX 1070 and some extra fans for the case, will look into a bigger SSD

nice!
I am upgrading my current rig - can't drop enough $$ for a 1070 though

bigger SSD is good, now that I look at it - my SSD (for just games) is 480Gb and I wish it was twice the size!!!


~FS~WinnerGirl

I gotta go all out ya know? Haven't had a build in a long time

~FS~grizz

haha, of course!
I just checked and the best deal I can get on a 1060 is less than HALF the price I would pay for a 1070!!!

Can't do it, but at least this ole rig has done well for a few years on the original build - good plan to go all out, might be awhile before another or an upgrade!
