Thanks for the link.

Extremely high. 8gb $110 unless want single stick $85

You so long never hoot. Now the items all not really worth it.

1st thing is the RAM you do not need a 1866mhz ram. A 1600mhz ram will do and rams now are insanely expensive.

2nd you do not need the cooler as no overclocking is needed.

3rd GTX760 is no longer value for money.

4th PSU is no longer value for money.

5th with Asus board you may not have sufficient budget for the rest of the components. And Asus gpu is nuts pricing. So drop the idea of Asus branding when you have a tight budget.

Will it be worth it to spend an extra $150 and go for i7-4771?

Is it worth to get SanDisk Ultra Plus SSD (3 years warranty ) or Intel 530 SSD (5 years warranty) from Amazon?

 

[xRenol]

Bumpzzz...

 

[xRenol]

Anyone have experiences using Intel 530 Series and SanDisk Ultra Plus SSD and how do they fair in terms of performance?

 

[xRenol]

Anyone can recommend a mATX build for me to compare?

Thanks.
