I'm starting collage in September and I want to build a system for myself that is smaller than my big tower that I can take with me. https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/Qf6BgL Yes, I am in Canada and am buying some parts used... the cpu and gpu for sure and I already have a z170 mini-itx gigabyte board. My budget is around $600 - $700 and I will be using it in basic photographic work and programming. The one question I have though is, my motherboard has a single usb 3.0 and usb 2.0 header... and with my 5 1/4 card reader I need 2 usb 3.0 and a single usb 2.0 header. How could I get this other usb 3.0 header?

Thanks for the help

So it is possible on the Z270 platform?

Looking for a motherboard that is z270 and allows for sli (2 way) and a extra interface card (total 20 pcie lanes needed). Is this possible with the desktop line or do I need to go to x99 or x299?

Forgot to put the thermal compond to marked as purchanced.

FYI: any part with a price of 0.00, I all ready have it I am building and upgrade my current rig and spilting it's rolls. https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/Skittlegaming/saved/VTYYJx this is what I am thinking to use for my main rig, I am open to any suggestions (I use a 34" lg 1080p monitor). https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/Skittlegaming/saved/GMVP6h I am thinking about using this as a secondary pc for when people come over (I have a 27" asus 1080p monitor). https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/7QJvcc I make servers for when I play with friends, so I am thinking about using this as a server (multiple at a time). All need air cooling becuase all of them have to be as close to silent as possible. Finale please use the Canadian pcpartpicker (ca.pcpartpicker.com).

Going to be using FreeNas with a raid 5 butter fs. https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/tKqBYr is this good.

Looking for a new power supply after my last one died (evga 500b 2 years strong). I have upgraded my parts since then so I can't get 500w power supply. I have a unlocked i5 6600k, 32gb ram, 2x gtx 1070 msi gaming x, deepcool captian 240ex, (need a atx power supply of 750w). So I have no idea of a good 750w power supply (plz help).
