    Hi,

    I'm looking at building a PC for development and gaming. My price range is around 700-800 euros. A friend of mine is changing out his graphics card so I'll be getting a Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 off of him.

    I had a look at this forum and built this spec off of an older post that had a 970. Is this still the best deal that I can get on parts? I'd be willing to change any of the spec below as long as it can use the 960. I have a monitor already (but would like 2 for development) , so am not fully opposed to scraping the monitor listed here for better, cheers in advance for any suggestions!

    Build looks sound to me, I don't know monitors too well so I won't comment on it
