Potato

Post Body

ended up going with
Asus Essentio Rampage II X58 - $115 Ebay
Intel Xeon X5675 -$75 Ebay
G. Skill 12GB DDR3-1333 $40 Ebay
Zotac GTX 1060 3GB $160 Amazon Warehouse Deals

And then from my pc graveyard I threw in
Fractal Design R4 (front audio panel went on the fritz)
Silverstone 850 watt power supply
Asus Wifi card
1 tb hard drive out of a laptop
240 gb Corsair Neutron SSD
Corsair H60 AIO cooler

I was able to overclock the X5675 to 4.3 ghz while keeping the vcore under 1.38. 3D mark said that it was faster than an i5-4670k 970 gtx combo and that it was VR capable. I had an old 24" 1080p Samsung monitor I threw in as well.

His first words when he got home and booted up the witcher were "Wtf these graphics What have you done to me lol"
