TOPIC: New PC!

Some of you might know that my laptop broke few days ago that's why I am unable to play garry's mod and other games. I'm going to build new PC and I need your help, This is my current build and I want to know if I can upgrade something without losing much money?

The parts you picked look fine, though i would recommend the "Intel DH77KC" motherboard, unless you want to OC(I have it, it's cheaper and is very stable). I also recommend a thermaltake case, they are very good and nice. Also, Pioneer writers are very good. Good luck

I'd suggest getting a HDD to store your games on!
120GB ain't good enough overall.

(Buy a second GPU and send me watch dogs too! JK )

You can get a cheap 500gb hard drive from amazon for $50 or a external hard drive for $50 aswell s you would save and get more storage .

I have external 1TB hdd, So I don't need any more space

I have an external TWO TB HDD. Get on my level!

I have a 120GB SSD for Windows and programs and 2 WD Velociraptor 1TB drives in RAID 0 for Steam. Get on my level!

I have mouse for 2£!
Get on my level!

Looks like a nice build though I suggest getting 4th gen Intel cpu instead of 3rd gen,
also you might wanna consider amd gpu's they're a lot cheaper and if you plan on only playing Gmod you don't need a 780, trust me I've got a 780Ti myself.

Sound card: good choice
Network card: Why?
The motherboard has a perfectly good NIC

it's already been 1 week and I'm pretty positive he already has his computer so you're kinda late

This is my PC that I am getting.

Sooo


Get a cheaper CPU (somehting like an I5-3570K) since that I7 is OP and not needed (It's only really good if you're rendering photos/videos etc).

Get a 60/80GB SSD for your operating system then get a 1TB or 2TB HDD for games, files etc.

Video card is good however I'd HIGHLY recommend the GTX 680 and if you can get 2 so you can SLI it.

I'd recommend a Corsair modular PSU.

Sound card shouldn't be needed but it's a nice extra

You did good, But i made a new list that will cut alot of the prices and give you alot more performance for games and such.
*this is the part where i talk another language pretty much*
The i7 you had was 2 generations old and just recently the new devils canyon processor came out with Much higher clock base speed and improved thermals.10 dollars for a 70% performance gain The mother board you also had was complete overkill and you didnt need the intel ethernet jack as motherboards over the 150 range have much better gaming specified Ethernet jacks.I also added a HDD which will be where you store everything else, the ssd should be used for the OS (windows) and say chrome or 1 or 2 games. A sound card isnt needed anymore, motherboards have them built in and most of the time are always better than an external sound card.I changed the asus 780 to an evga 780,it has better cooling and is a bit faster and cheaper. The cpu cooler is good,you can get a water cooler for it for an extra 40 if you want and i will do that but here is the final list. The build i just gave you preforms ALOT better than the previous one, and you still have an awesome Mobo that is still a bit overkill xD
tl;dr I gave you so much more performance and you saved 100 bucks
Let me know what you think and tell me if you want a water cooler for only 40 bucks and ill look for it on pc part picker (Another IMPORTANT thing i forgot to mention,do you need the i7 4790k? an i5 4690k is the best gaming processor out there atm and is 100 dollars cheaper,the i7 is needed if you record/edit regularly etc)
*edit- sorry if you are getting swamped with info i just cant hold my nerdiness xD
another thing is i could put the i5 in there if you arent doing video editing and with the money i saved i can get you the 780 ti which is the 2nd best gaming gpu in the world behind the 295 x2 and it will just cost you a bit cheaper than your original price.
tl:dr If you arent Video editing atleast once a week than there is no need for an i7
Gaming rig that can be used for editing and recording regularly- pcpartpicker.com/p/n2wFK8
Pure Gaming Rig and MUCH better gpu than the above.- pcpartpicker.com/p/zJQNgs
In all honestly i would go with the above one as i only ever edit videos once a month if even
