Hello everyone!
I am previously a console gamer and am looking to switch over to the PC world. I was just looking for some help on a build I have put together.

I am looking to stay in the $700-750 range but any advice or feedback will be greatly appreciated!
Dont get an Ghz edition, its just an pre-overclocked 7870...
I'm guessing you want your PC just to do gaming or do you want to do editing, ect? Also do you plan on overclocking?
If this computer is mainly for gaming and you don't want to overclock right away this is what I recommend - http://pcpartpicker.com/p/FWfs
Also if you have any hardrives lying around use those to save money as well as any optical drives (Or install your OS via USB)
If you're totally ditching your console you can salvage the harddrive from it and use it untill you have more money to buy a bigger harddrive
All 7870's are Ghz Edition. The stock clock is 1 ghz. The one he picked is right in line with any other 7870 pricewise.
Yes it will mostly be used for gaming. Unfortunately I don't have any extra parts laying around and the console isn't just mine so I'm gonna have to just buy everything I need. And I do plan on overclocking. Just not right away.
