My build. Need advice.

[Micknasty]

This is what I have so far. I want to know if it would be okay to get a different motherboard and add in a SSD 32-64g. I wanna keep it as close to $1,000 as possible. I'm only getting $1,050 for my tax return and that's all I have to spend. I'll be streaming WoW/League/CS:GO with this. I have the upload speed needed to do it. Just wanna get some input before I buy it.

PS. What would the cons be if I bought this PC instead, and it comes build already.

120GB SSD included.

No compromise on performance.

Better quality and modular PSU.

Is this a viable option instead of building my own?

It will run if that is what you asking, but @Notarget system will beat that premade one any day.

Gone for this one due to being unable to use MIRs ideally. Only parts that have a MIR are the HDD and possibly the PSU. That should fit into your tax return budget of $1050.

Deals change constantly, what i put together 4-5 days ago might have changed as you can see above. Also add an aftermarket heatsink.

There are a few more rebates to deal, if you're okay with that.

The case above comes with 4 fans out of the box compared to the 1 fan in the NZXT, not bad for that price, slightly flimsy overall just handle with care. The aesthetics will not be for everyone.

I'd still add the 212 EVO cooler if you can afford it but you can get by without it.

Personally I'd pick the EVGA card above but both are good.

The build isn't meant to be "omg this is much better than his", just some minor tweaks or personal changes I'd make. Guess it's really only the case and GPU now that I look at it.
