Ok then, Here's the changes I made to my list: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($229.97 @ SuperBiiz) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($33.03 @ Amazon) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($103.99 @ Amazon) Memory: Corsair Vengeance LP 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($164.99 @ Amazon) Storage: Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($157.99 @ Amazon) Storage: Western Digital BLACK SERIES 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($174.67 @ Amazon) Storage: Western Digital BLACK SERIES 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($174.67 @ Amazon) Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX Video Card ($355.91 @ Newegg) Case: Silverstone PS07B MicroATX Mini Tower Case ($69.99 @ Amazon) Power Supply: Silverstone Strider 600W 80+ Silver Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($99.99 @ Amazon) Optical Drive: Asus BW-12B1ST/BLK/G/AS Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer ($74.99 @ Amazon) Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional SP1 (OEM) (64-bit) ($147.26 @ OutletPC) Case Fan: Noctua NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 IP67 PWM 71.7 CFM 120mm Fan ($26.95 @ Amazon) Case Fan: Noctua NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 IP67 PWM 71.7 CFM 120mm Fan ($26.95 @ Amazon) Case Fan: Noctua NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 IP67 PWM 71.7 CFM 120mm Fan ($26.95 @ Amazon) Total: $1868.30 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2014-11-03 21:07 EST-0500 I still am including the three Noctua fans because the case I'm using doesn't come with a rear exhaust fan and I might use the Noctua fans on the CPU cooler.

Oh and some more information, I'm only going to be using one Monitor and I'm going to be reusing a keyboard and a mouse from a earlier system I built. The Monitor is a 1080p moniitor (A ASUS VE228 monitor).

I mainly have those extra fans to replace the fans on the Noctua CPU cooler as well as putting a fan in the back on the case as well as replacing the fans in the front of the case because these Noctua fans can move quite a lot of air, especially through tight spaces and thick coverings like the dust filter in the front area of that Silverstone case. And the reason I'm going with Micro ATX is mainly to experiment Making one as well as wanting to have a physically smaller system on my desk. And since it's on my desk, there isn't that much space. That and I also want my parts to have cool temps so that they can last as long as they can. And I saw on reviews that the NH-U12S cooler can get quite good temperatures compared to other Air coolers.

I'm probably going to do mostly gaming on it as well as some multi-tasking things like surf the internet while a game is running in the background. Well I basically want a gaming Rig inside of a professional not that flashy cover. No windows on the side panels or glowing inside LED bits. Just something sleek and professional/workstation looking. That and I also want to try my hand at making a Micro ATX build too. I'm also going to be having this rig sitting on my desk, so a physically smaller PC will work for that reason too. =3

Hey everyone, I need some opinions on this build, does it look like it might be a good enough build for me? http://pcpartpicker.com/user/WesFox13/saved/HvPQzy If there is anything I should change please let me know.

Well I've been wanting a upgrade to my Graphics Card anyway, so I hope I win.

Hey Everyone, I just joined this forums today because I love Linus' youtube vids. And I found the vids mainly be browsing the /r/pcgamingmasterrace subreddit.
