I work at an electronics retailer who shall remain nameless.  I can get the R9-270X for $220 from Asus, or $217 from XFX.  850W thermaltake PSU for about $90.  After an amazon mobo, some risers, and a 45W sempron processor I'm good to go.  I have an unopened Crucial 64GB SSD and a few copies of Windows 7 and 8.1 lying around so The build should give me a pretty quick ROI.


oh yeah.... magic happened.  just got over to 800 doge.  Thank you for the rapid fix.
