but idk how long that sale is, after it ends it goes back to 650$, so I hope he logs in soon 
Not being able to build one is a shame though I could do so much more inside that budget if we were picking parts...
lol didn't notice one of them had a 950. Probably worth getting if he was gonna grab another drive anyway. It's around 50% faster than a 750 ti.

And umm. I guess that is up to you, i don't bother with it because I can fix anything on a computer (it's been a hobby for years and years), but in your case it might be a good idea? If you are physically unable to fix it yourself, then it might be a good idea I guess, it really is on you
i like the amazon prime shipping. i was in i.t. for 20 years before my amputations. i have all the know how but physicaly cant hold a screw driver
thanks for the help
jesus now their servers are down
Newegg has premier, which is basically the same thing as amazon prime
And I'm sorry... I'd come do it for you if I could
thanks, live in illinois?
No lol I am in New York
Long drive... But I hope you enjoy your new rig, Mine is half of my old PC and half second ahnd parts I got from other people for cheap
When I have the money I might grab an I7-4790k for this board, and then a new GPU
but let us know how it runs when you get it
are there similar deals on amazon with the i3?
intel is better for emulation?
Intel is HANDS DOWN better for emulation. AMD hasn't been able to catch up for years. And honestly, about amazon, no. You will find stuff like this
https://www.amazon.com/BuildMyGamingPC-I...3012497011 which is almost exactly what I showed you on newegg but its an extra 400$ on amazon. Or you will find something for between 500$ and 600$ with half the hardware of the one from newegg.
