I'm looking to build a pc and with very little knowledge on pc specs I came up with this. I'm hoping someone can give me their opinions on this build and or offer some changes. Thanks:)

i would say swap that with a 970gtx and swap the ram with 16gigs and go with windows 7 pro since 7 home will sorta limit you from ram upgrades but like the guy above me said depends on the budget you have

Would mean you can run games most likely on max with a decent amount of FPS.
Depends on your budget though

16GB of RAM is not needed for gaming, 8GB will be fine.

OP what is your budget?
Do you need mouse, monitor & keyboard?

I have monitor, mouse, etc.. My budget was around 800 but going a little over would be fine.

You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. 8gb of RAM is perfectly fine for gaming and small rendering.

4gb 980ti? Thats not even a thing. There is a 6gb but they are $600+ and will not fit into his budget. It would be a waste at 1080p anyway, which he is most likely running. Also why a better GPU? The one he picked out is just fine.

OP: PSU is shit as it uses cheap hardware. When I get home ill build you one.

Tad bit over but much better build imo, SSD for OS and your favorite games, can add another 390 in XFire but you will need a PSU upgrade but 1 GPU is perfectly fine as it is powerful, mobo will need a BIOS update but you can ask the seller to do that
