Ok i got a really horrible family pc and have been wanting to make my own. This isnt a final build its just a start and im trying to keep it under $650. I just wanna know what everyone thinks and if everything is compatable and if there is something i should take out and replace. Im new at the computer building so any help would be greatly appreciated.
