I will be adding some gaming builds at different price points (mostly budget, sometimes overkill), so you don't have to dig through everything!

The high end is confusing to me. It seems like you skimped on the CPU cooling to be able to come in under budget. I'd rather spend the extra $50 and get an H110 GT or go up even more to something like a Kraken x61.

Thanks, but, I can't add a better cooler because I would have to get a more expensive case, which would result in a higher price and essentialy no performance gain.
