Hey /g/ i need ur help im thinking of spending almost 2 grand on building a comp but i want to know if i can make it any better

Bump plz halp

Its fine, is say go for it. If you want to save a bit of money you don't need 16gigs of ram unless you're doing something that needs it.
>>
Did you look at the price history for your CPU? It is way overpriced from that seller. Wait until it drops or another seller is available with a lower price.
Then if you still want to spend around the amount you are willing to now, upgrade your GPU to a 980ti.
>>
Think about an SSD and a 1TB drive. If you're not gaming, or only playing low intensity games or whatever opt for a 390x or something

The CPU is waaay to expensive from that shop. I suggest you try to find it on Amazon or something and get the 980ti instead of the 980 for the money you safe.

Do NOT get the 6700k right now. Prices are insanely high for something barely better than the 4790k.

You said you do a lot of video editing. In that case, you should be getting an i7-5820k on an X99 board. It'll be cheaper than this overpriced stuff, and perform significantly faster in multi-threaded workloads thanks to the 6 real cores.

Skip the GTX 980. If you really want to spend that much, go for the 980ti. If you don't want to spend that much, go for the R9 390. If you MUIST stick with NVidia and don't want the 980ti, then get the 970 (but the R9 390 is better). Skip the 980. It makes no sense since it's only real advantage over the 970 is the lack of VRam segmentation (and a tiny boost in cuda cores, but that's not that big a difference).

>$698.89 for a 6700k
>$337.89 for a 4790k
>4790k beats the 6700k at stock speeds as well as has a higher average overclock

Wow just kick yourself in the face, kek

Here. Better in pretty much every way. I even added an SSD and spent less money.

Your original choices were really poor from a cost/benefit standpoint, and the PSU was just really shitty for the build. The CPU was horribly overpriced too.

get your 16gbs of RAM and buy a 40" 4k display with it and you're good to go
