Hey guys. First time I visited this forum I didn't know s*it about building a computer, but I've learned a lot for the 3 months I've been here, I still don't know that much and I'd like your help/advice on my first comp that I'll actually get a chance to build on my own. My budget is $1500 and the comp will be mostly used for gaming. Here is what I got so far, if you see any incompatibility wherever please feel free to change it. Thx a lot.
