Build of the Month - April 2017
Each month or so we will post a couple of hardware setups for those of you who are thinking of upgrading their computer!

This month
The current SSD prices are fairly flat right now, with most SSDs under $0.50 per gigabyte when on sale.
Depending on how much you want to overclock, you may need to spend a bit more for a better CPU cooler like the NH-D15.
Unless you are doing a lot of video rendering or streaming, you do not need the 7700K and would get more performance from spending that money elsewhere.
Make sure to keep your AMD and Nvidia drivers up to date.
