I have came out with a built by myself and went out by budget by abit and need a little advice on which components should i downgrade and also im not too sure which wireless card to get. Should i stick with 8gb ram or 16gb ram? All the prices are from PCThemes. Thanks alot!

Ram 8gb is enough for the moment, upgrade when you have budget again. Get value ram will do. Mobo can downgrade to h110. Gaming won't take a tow to be honest unless you want the gaming mobo just for the look. You won't need 650w. Down to 500w will do since you're getting one with 80+ rating.

Now use all the money saved and get a zotac gtx1070 mini.

And I forget to ask u. What's your current monitor? Without one that accepts 1440p, u can't go there.

well it's time to start thinking. based on your monitor, it's easier to recommend u stuff that will maximize it. a 1060 will do for 1080p@60hz whereas the 1070 is recommended for 1440p.

Thanks man! how about wifi card im not sure which to get though :/

u could consider the mobos with onboard wifi. but if u want better stability, consider a pcie wifi card although those are more costly.

Why 2x4gb. Get a 1x8 and then add another 8 in future would be better, no?
