EndrenXL:
So, after not being able to play a game I just bought, I decided to purchase a new computer, and in order to save some money, decided to buy the parts and put them together. Helped by my brother, Digmaster, Ive put together this and now one question remains.

Should I buy it?

Heres the parts;

It took me forever to make this chart, should I buy?
FrAgGEr:
I think you should take money away from the parts that don't matter (keyboard, case, etc.) and put that money into the things that matter the most (processor, monitor, etc.)
EndrenXL:
BTW, the subtotal is $1,081.91
tay104:
Do you really need the speakers, keyboard, mouse, and monitor?  Also, this graphics card has more memory than the one you have there.
General Nick:
Yeah, if you still have a working keyboard, mouse and case you really don't need them unless they're breaking/falling apart/only one case fan.
