Hey my friend wants a new PC that will handle Diablo 3 flawlessly, and probably most other games for the next couple of years. His budget is about 1000 USD. This is what I've come up with, but he's not very knowledgeable on this kind of stuff. I'm kind of making this post just to get some second opinions, and hopefully ease his mind that this is a good build for the money.
If you guys think it's good let me know, and if you have any concerns/suggestions I'd like to hear them as well. Thanks guys
Your build is pretty much ok, i would not recommend the psu tho has loads of problems, from DoA to failures during the first few months. Also the ram you got will not fit under then evo cooler.
Assuming you are overclocking from your build above, i swapped to the new i5 4690k and Z97 mobo. Also went with gtx770 but nothing wrong with R9 280X its a good option as well and finally 256gb ssd, slightly over 1k.
