It was brought to my attention that the price was messed up on the I7 7700k so I went with a few cheaper items to bring it closer to your budget.


If you want to save a little bit more money, this one does not have an unlocked processor.

Skylord can I put a hybrid drive in the second one in the future? or at least a hard drive because games are getting pretty big in the 21st century

You easily can! It can be as simple as plugging in the second drive.

Turtle ,
you can get an 8 core AMD processor for $130.
you can get an 8 GB GDDR5 graphics card, AMD, for $200.
Why not?

Are you referring to the AMD FX 8*** lineup from 2012? They perform horribly in any modern task.

The FX series cannot fully utilize 8GB's of VRAM on a GPU.

They are a much better value than Nvidia's counterparts. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a budget gaming computer. Especially if they are looking for 1080p/light 1440p gaming.
