It'll be a gaming PC but I'll also use it to edit videos and stuff like that. I'll also be upgrading with another GPU in the future so no changing the PSU. I need the 16GB of RAM just in case, the graphic card seems good. Will use one SSD for the OS and the other for games. It's around $1,950 but when I build it on PCPartPicker it's $120 cheaper, should I buy all the stuff from a single place just in case a problem appears or should I buy from different places? I don't know about the motherboard, people say it's a good one. Also, is the CD/DVD driver good? should I change it? Anything else? did I forget something? I'll buy the OS from somewhere else, need recomendations on monitor, mouse, and keyboard, mechanical would be nice.

Thanks

dude did you like copy my build?
lol this is my same build i made =)

i can help you out
may i ask why you need all the SSD's for?
i only run one 128gb for windows 7

why the ram?
if i was you i would start out with 8gb's and if you need more upgrade, but most gaming builds only require 8gb more would be overkill
.
everything seems pretty good to me. =)

the motherboard is worth it. no problems what so ever.
it comes with 4 sata cables so you only need to buy one.

Haha, I need the RAM because I'll do video editing and I also have lots of tabs open at the same time. I'll use one SSD for the OS and the other for games. Just need a case, and propably will change the GPU for a 7970, and I want a blu ray but I'm not sure if it will be able to play DVD or just burn blu rays, and some people complain about not coming with software I'm still clueless about those things.

If it was me, I wouldn't go for the 680 series. For about 1/2 the price, you could pick up the GTX 670 2GB (Don't worry about onboard memory for the GPU Too much), by MSI, and get the same (If not better) performance from an OC on it. So you can cut off some cash there :3 Also, it includes a free metro last light certificate, so if you decide to go with it, there's a great game coming with it. Best of luck

My advice? I would go with the 7970, it OC's very well and outperforms the 680 in most cases.

Also, there's utterly no point in getting an I7 Or 16GB of RAM, you are only going to need that if you're going to do heavy effects on hour long videos like FrankieOnPCin1080p.
16GB of ram is useless, most programs use no more than 4gb.
