            It works now. That is a pretty good PC but you said you already have some parts. Your CPU you already have is good and your Ram and PS is fine. You really only need a new motherboard and a kick *** GPU. And maybe a case if you don't already have one. With a $1000 and only those parts you could go all out. And if you really want that 4k gaming beast the GTX 1080ti is just next level. Should future proof you for a long time. I have one and it is a monster. I'm running games at 2160 4k too. Not 1440 4k.

              Yes but the prices of cards now it may be cheaper to buy this one, fix my old one. Sell the old one and down the line upgrade the card.

              Overall this new one destroys my pc in everything except psu.

                Oh I see. Well in that case that PC is a very fine option overall. It's actually a killer deal. The GTX 1070 is no slouch either. It may be enough for all your gaming needs.

                  Well the cards being affected are the mid range cards, 1070 on down for nvidia and 570 on down for AMD I believe (I don't know AMD's line as well as Nvidia). The 1080 prices are about the same and some are lower than they ever have been. I saw a brand new 1080 on Amazon for $480 last week, I should of jumped on it because that was a steal, but it was sold out fast.

                  So you can go beast mode and still spend about the same but if you want a 1070 or 1060, then now is not the time to buy, they are priced just as much as the 1080s.

                    Do any of you guys have a small case? I'm wanting to start planning to build a pc but want to avoid putting it all in a huge case.

                    I been out of the loop since 2012 so not sure what to look for. Wanting to game and start using Steam.

                    I do want to get the i7 chip, and a pretty decent graphics card. Will get an ssd and probably 16 gb of ram to start.

                    I seen cubes and mini cases, but not sure if those can hold a good graphics card without over heating.

                    Also note that I just ordered a Asus Rog PG34Q for my everyday monitor and to video edit.

                          I loved my X52, but I sold all my flight gear, rudder pedals, throttle quad, etc (still have headtracker), but now I'm wishing I didn't. I bought http://store.steampowered.com/app/30...of_Stalingrad/ and I haven't been able to play it.

                          The graphics are insane from what little i've seen.

                            I caved and bought that unit.

                            My uncle and I messed with my old pc and we couldnt get it to work. Im prob gutting it and selling it individually. That or throw my old pc harddrive into my new pc, reformat it and then buy a cheap windows 7 title and see if that fixes my issue on my old pc. Always nice to have a backup.

                              I have the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv case. It''s a great case for my first build. It's very easy to work with.

                                Thanks guys, I think i'm going to go midtower, go for the Corsair 460x case.

                                What are your guy's recommendation for graphic cards if I want to take full advantage of my monitor? (Asus ROG ultra wide 34")

                                I also have a 4k tv so I might use that too but will likely keep it at my desk.
