Hi all. My old digital storm pic has lasted me about 6-7 years now. Blue screen of death, figured I'd get a new one than deal with upgrading since it's been so long. With this build anything I should change because it won't work or anywhere I can save some money you think??

Budget:
2-4K

Expectations:
Coming from an sli and overclocked pc that lasted a long time with no upgrades. Would like to get a rig that lasts and allows me to be hands off. One complaint I have with old set up was the noise. Would like to reduce noise as much as possible.

Usage:
Gaming and casual use. FPS and various other games.

Special Needs:
None really.

Hi Rborr14. Welcome to the forums.

What monitor resolution are you using ?    That determines the graphics card needed.     If you stay with sli then I would bump up the psu.

Drop the 32gb ram 16gb, more than enough for gaming.    

I would also select the CD under Recovery options. Good to have if the drive dies.   

The rest looks good.
