Post Body

Hey there, I've been going about doing my gaming on a laptop for the past 5 years, and now that I have a full time job, I want to get back to a good and solid desktop. Not only that, I wanna go for overkill, now I know I'm not the best part picker, so I came to see how much money you could shave off of this build. I wanna be sitting pretty for a good long while with this build. I would want to bring it down to under $2000 without losing much performance. I'm going for pure gaming power! Thanks for everyone's help!
