So say I were to build a PC (if I had the money) that is practically a knock off of Pistol's rig. My main concern would be the gpu because of the ridiculous choices. I'm mostly trying to keep everything in microcenter and the case(with ram and storage) with newegg. Here is the list:
FX 3850
Crosshair v Formula(Yes judge me all you want but it's not like the Sabertooth gen3 is anywhere to be seen)
Kingston 16gb 2400
R9 290x/780/2x770's/2xR9 280x
corsair h100i/Prolimatech megahalems
corsair rm850
Fractal Design Define R4 Blackout/NZXT H440
Xonar Phoebus(I already have one that I won but I can't use it)
Please give the build some critical input because I plan to render/stream/edit/game/low end productivity. If I do end up getting money from my old consoles it would go to this (but can't find a freakin' buyer(and if interested look on my WTS page once I post pictures).
