First ever build. 750$ Gaming PC

An H110 board is abour 30ish dollars cheaper.

Is the 2TB HDD necessary? If you are willing to settle for a 1TB then that's 40 dollars off.

Get a higher capacity SSD. And a better model than the V300. It has a bad rep.

RX 480 is coming out very soon for 200 dollars. Wait for it. See the benchmarks. Don;t buy the 390X yet.

DVD writer is unnecessary if all you are getting it for is to install the OS. Installing the Os through the USB is the standard nowadays.

I kept the 390X as a placeholder for the RX 480.
