Opinions and thoughts :)

Hi Guys,

 

Just wanted to get your opinion on the build I'm getting before I get it. Feel free to share your thoughts. I'm going to pretty much be using it for gaming, video/photo/music editing and the other stuff like uni assignments. I'm pretty set on the parts and hope they are decent for future proofing (I know a pci-e ssd would be more future proofing but already spending too much lol). Anyways here's what I plan on getting and most likely will get it by next week unless someone changes my mind :P.

Few Notes:

I'm from Australia, the chosen RAM is cheaper than the 2133Mhz, I don't like windows 8 (with a passion  :P ). I want to keep it dust proof as possible and long lasting (so quality and reliable parts are a must (probably not Asus, as I have had some bad experiences with their products....and warranty service was horrible.). I want to keep away from blue screens as much as possible....so anything that you see in the list that you think might cause that I will gladly change or anything I should add to prevent it will most likely be added. I'll probably add more as I go along. I have done a fair bit of research before picking the parts but any thoughts on things would be great  ;) .

maybe a 280mm rad instead of a 240mm rad. also it's 2133mhz not 2133ghz

THAT could make a difference if it were real ghz ram;-)
