All 1055 $, u can lower the price if u want just change GPU. Go with 7870 2 GB.

Credits to @hanspirot2 for the build
I just want second opinions as well as what I can sacrifice to try and save a few extra bucks

That's a great build.
Depending on games you play, you may change graphics card.

I want to play just about any game you can think of, and play them with great speeds.
Might lower it to a 2g card though, defiantly taking a few inches off the monitor size as well

But thanks, I feel a lot better about doing this since its my first time
1grand is really really steep for me, so we'll see how long it will take to finish this

7870 would be able to play any games you throw at it.
But if you want to play at max quality for almost all games, go for 7950.
Your build isn't even expensive considering how there's a monitor there too.

Looks like a great build, what games will you be playing may I ask? ^_^

If you'd want a future proof build I'd suggest upgrading the GPU to a 7950 or something. ^-^
