Hello I am currently deployed to Afghanistan but getting ready to return in a few months. So celebration starts with building a new rig! I have 3 kids that I have to build for at the end of the year so I am trying to get a 1200.00 gaming rig build for myself. Here is what I have chosen so far. If you could pass advise or suggestions it would be appreciated Also I am an AMD fanboy so I wont go with intel
