Hi im a nub. I want to build a super good pc for gaming.

this is the graphics card i want: GeForce GTX 980 Ti Graphics Card | GeForce

this is the motherboard i want:
the mouse, keyboard, sound system, and monitors are taken care of.

the case is taken care of.

What else will i need to buy?

Respectfully, Bug
 
Well.. the two parts you picked up are $940 of the $1100 and you can't get a psu, cpu, os, ram, hdd for that remaining cost.. not even close lol

Here is a pretty high end system, with 16 gigs of ram, hybrid 2tb drive, gtx 980 and a 4690k. A 980 TI will add almost $300 to the price below and I went fairly conservative on the build

Edit: Forgot to add in an Operating system which could add another $90
 
hmm. a lot of mumbo jumbo language going on here.

I'll see what i can do with this build one thing though, the gtx 980...i take its diffferent than the gtx 980ti? there is a 150$ ddifference for that. And a 93$ difference between the motherboards. So...witht he motherboard and graphics card i mentioned, if i were to replace those two given by my original, it would about a 250$ difference, which would total the build to 1372$. What do you think about the idea?

Well no.. The 980 vs 980 ti is almost a $250/$300 difference by itself. The 980 ti is overkill for 90% of people.

The motherboard you posted was for an x99 platform. That would add an easy $400-$600 to your price just for the other components.
The main go-to is the z97 chipset (which I posted)

If you went with what you posted, you would be nearing $1650
 
All I can say is 1100 is about right for a good rig. Spent that amount on 2 of my friends rig's that I built for them. Looks like kaM has you covered. There's a lot of other guys better with that stuff than I am. Either way you gotta post pics when it starts happening :cool:

I would give him an SSD and a gold certified PSU :)

If he wanted to spend another $100 for an 850 evo would be good. I tossed in a 2TB hybrid (8GB ssd cache) that I've been selling in my shop lately, and they are pretty fast.
 
don't jump the new hardware bandwagon, not worth it.
I would get a used 390x (-4GB of Vram and 50mhz of speed hahaha) for $200 each, two of these would spank the 980ti silly for $250 less.
 
I bought my Sapphire 290x 4gb for 299.99 just as all the AMD 300 series news was starting. Now the same 290x is retailing for $50 more. Might want to wait a few weeks for prices to stabilize, even for the 300 series cards.
