PC Build under $920.00 Center

Can someone suggest a gaming build for $1667? I need 16 gigs of RAM—thanks.
(just a 😁 case
)

Honestly, 16GB is overkill for gaming, and it’s probably the easiest thing to upgrade later anyway.

seeing a motherboard from $117 in a build like $1667 makes me want to gag.😬

Look 😁 the processor isn't even meant for overclocking anyway—it stays cool and doesn't pull much power. Plus, that motherboard isn't actually all that bad; it fits right within the budget and gets the job done 🙂

If we’re talking strictly about temperatures, I guess Intel (Haswell) runs quite a bit hotter than AMD, though Intel does have a significantly higher tmax. It might be okay, but I’d probably lean toward an ASUS ROG Strix Motherboard with Corsair Vengeance RAM, a B85M-K, or maybe an H81M-HDS R2.0 or B85M-DGS/HDS instead. 😉

guys, thanks a lot 🙂
