I'm pretty dead set on this build. If anyone has any warnings/advice about parts or a better recommendation, I would love to hear it, otherwise I'm probably purchasing the parts later today.
P.S. PartPicker doesn't specify, but it's the Asus Strix version of the R9 390. Doesn't make much of a differencee
