I'd disable 1 and 2 as well, they seem like they'd be fighting with 3 and 4 unless they're perfectly matched up.

With a copy of Windows 10 Pro comes to approx $1300 before tax. Are these parts good? Should i really just ditch intel and go amd?
I dont plan to stream while gaming but.. who knows lol | Did you see my build on top of page 202?
1362 before tax and without the the PSU added
Pretty similar to what you want asides no wifi adapter.
Could swap the case but the builds pretty similar prob best option for you around ur price range
Instead of Newegg use PCPartPicker it's dope for finding the cheapest price on parts and you can see what the prices were the past year to compare

Update:
It seems like it was the ram after all. Haven't experienced any restarts after replacing the ram sticks. You guys have no idea how relieved I am to finally know what was wrong after 2 years lol. Thanks for all the help boys.

27'' 60hz to 32 144hz would be worth it,just purchased the budget 144hz i posted above and its back down to 250....can't wait...i think my 1070 gtx can support 1440p 144hz but the cost is almost the whole budget of my tower alone..

^^^...push & pull set-up on the radiator...1 in-front & 1 in back x2...you could but its just another 1 or 2 degree difference and lot more noise.....they designed the radiators not to be so restrictive now a days.

have been using samsung SSD since it first launched, slight problem in the beginning where its service centre had to "re-format" it in their special secret way, after that no more problem for 3 yrs.

Samsung makes great SSDs, but I'd only really buy them if they were on sale and within $5-10 of the other SSDs.
Used Sandisk Ultra IIs in the past with no issues, and currently using a Crucial MX300.
Performance difference on traditional SATA SSDs are negligible for most use cases.

Someone from Telus came by today to let us know that they'd be running fiber in my neighbourhood (near Moscrop Secondary).
She said that we could have up to a 1Gbps connection once everything is set up for around $150 a month.
Happy with my Internet 150 from Shaw right now, but I wouldn't hesitate to jump ship if a good Telus promotion came up.

I happened to have an SSD boot drive die on me recently as well, and I was shocked to see how bloody expensive the drives are now (compared to late last year).
