    After reading the comments, I decided to go i7 12700F + H670 instead of the i5 + Z690 due to more performance for the same money. I do however loose both iGPU and the ability to overclock, but I'm willing to lose this over performance. The reason for why I picked that 3070ti is because it cost the same as a 3070 non-TI, and therefore I went with the more powerful one. I thought about it, and decided to go with 1 Boot disk and 1 storage disk, and then just split both drives for the Win10 and Linux Mint. And if I want more storage I should invest into a NAS solution. I have read that it's easier to do dual booting Win+Linux on one drive compared to two drives. I picked that cooler, because I know there is included mounting hardware for LGA1700, and I'm not too sure about others. I would prefer to not have to go through the manufacturers to get the mounting kit. If there is anymore ideas, and input, I'm still open for it, but I think that this build is fine for me.

    Magnumenforce got a reaction from arkon in New Phone, but on a low budget   
    I thanks for all of the advices. A Nokia Lumia 520 in black should be arriving tomorrow.
    And I like the fact that even thought I said that I can NOT buy the Moto G because it is not available in Denmark, you all still advice me to buy it.
    Thanks agian for the advices.

    I have a lot of things I want to come out with:
     
    I use VGA for my second monitor, which is almost 11 years old non-widescreen 17" Medion.
     
    I have already my case and CPU-cooler but nothing else.
     
    I am thinking about buy a PSU now, and later the OS, and lastly the rest.
     
    My mobile gaming headset is the cheapest piece of $#!t, you can buy on this planet.
     
    My back-up drive is a Hitachi 640GB formatted in FAT32
     
    I don´t like Dota 2
     
    I did not uninstall the bloatware that came with my laptop, and I am in fact using some of it.
     
    I run Ad-block on everything possible.
     
    I make Skype calls, without my mic plugged in, even though I have Razer Comms installed.
     
    My phone is a old Nokia brick
     
    I am saving up twist-ties so I can have some cable-management in my case, an Antec LanBoy Air Blue.
     
    I am gaming hardcore on a low-med ended laptop
     
    Wherever I go with my laptop, I am also bringing a folder with 40 CD´s and DVD`s
     
    I am still buying games at Gamestop.
     
    I loved my Xbox 360 (until it got RROD)
     
    This is just some I have done. My list could go on, but I don´t want you all to know everything I have done wrong with my tech.
