What was so hard about that?
just found out 1500 is my budget
Very good build. Only two things I'll mention. The 16gb of ram is not necessary, 8gb is plenty. If saving money is not a concern then never mind.
I would also go with the Sapphire Vapor-X Tri-X. Instead of the regular Tri-X.

updated - $11 over budget, check down the back of the couch if you are short
thanks
that's not bad
Why the 4x2GB...?
Yeah switch that 4x2 ram to 2x4. 2 sticks of ram are more stable than 4. Plus the extra 2 ram slots will make room for more ram down the road if needed.
