Buying today! Last minute feedback.

The build I'm getting is for gaming. I intend on playing Csgo, gta 5, rocket league, fallout 4, etc. I'll be using my old monitor until I save up for a good one (I'm using a dell st2010b). Lemme know if I can change anything without the price going up too much. No rebates!

ditch the cooler and get 16gb of adata ram instead of 8gb corsair, should end up being the same price

Whats the resolution for the monitor? What settings are you playing the games at? what frame rates do you want?

Good build, you can save couple of bucks by going with HyperX Fury instead of Vengeance memory, plus a Define R4 is still a great case and is slightly cheaper. OH, and change the PSU to an EVGA SuperNOVA GS 650W.

Do you guys even know anything about computers? how do you know it's great? what if he is playing at 4k? or 720p? that not a great build then! what if he wants to play at 30fps? what about he he want to play on low settings? is that still a great build?

I have a stock cooler on a i5 3470 folding OPEN AIR, right next to me and its quieter than the waterblock in my main rig which is a meter away.... 212 was even louder than my waterblock...

He told that he's upgrading monitor later. 1080p or 1440p most likely..

30fps? Are you kidding me?

You could save money on the OS through purchasing a key off MicrosoftSoftwareSwaps or G2A, or even eBay.

Cooler is unnecessary as you won't be overclocking that CPU.

I've read it's quieter, no?

30fps is completely playable.

He said that he was playing on his old dell monitor, so I didn't think that he would be going anywhere above 1600x900 to 1920x1080

I also would assume that not many people would want to play at low settings :)

It looks good if your at a 1080p resolution and great parts list

Will you be overclocking or playing at higher resolutions

No overclocking and highest resolution in the upcoming future is 1080p

I'm more of a better safe than sorry person. I relate it to buying a $20 PSU to a $80 PSU.
