Made a New Computer
So I just made a new computer because I gave the previous one to my cousin.
So far everything has been running fine. I can finally run games at 60 FPS max settings.

CPU: Intel Core i5-4690 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor

Motherboard: MSI Z97-Gaming 3 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

Memory: Patriot Viper 3 Low Profile Black 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory

Storage: 1. Samsung 850 EVO-Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
2. Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB Superclocked ACX 2.0 Video Card

Case: Corsair 300R ATX Mid Tower Case

Power Supply: Thermaltake 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer

Keyboard: Logitech G105 Mechanical Keyboard

Mouse: Razer DeathAdder Chroma Wired Optical Mouse

Yes I do know that I should change the PSU. I'll do it later on. :P

lmao, you do realize the deathadder is a really good mouse despite everyone's views on razer.

OP:
Couldve eased up on storage and mobo a bit and probably get a slightly better GPU, but congrats!

8GB is just enough for gaming now,and probably next few years.

I agree that if you have nothing open but one game, sure 8gb is enough, but if you have multiple monitors and more things than one game open at the same time, you can easily choke on 8gb ram.

Why would you play 2 games at same time ????
That makes no sense,for triple 1440p monitors 8gb isn't enough,but for triple 1080p it is just enough.

no, no, no not multiple games, but did you know how much RAM a web browser with some tabs take? alot! also you can have other programs (not games) that you'd want like spotify, skype, ts3, etc.

Ahh sweet, maybe when I make enough money I can just buy one.

Congratulations man! It felt good when I first built my PC. You should replace that PSU ASAP or else if you run to many things on it, it may burn the computer out, meaning you'll need to buy a completely new computer.

Damn thats a sick build man, congrats!

Nice, I'm building my own as well in a month, once I get at least $900.

Intel is a great choice!
Motherboard is ok. I prefer ASRock as they have solid boards that are water resistant.
Solid Ram! Upgrade to 16gb asap.
I like to show off so the case to me is crap but it fits well for basic bitches like you!
Nice Power Supply! JK you are walking on ice with that PS!
LOL you bought a razer mouse?
