I'm planning on gaming to the max if you know what I mean. I'll also be web browsing a lot.

@nitori, that's a bit of an overkill for a web browser rig. ;)

ON A 7 MONTH BREAK FROM THESE LTT FORUMS. WILL BE BACK ON NOVEMBER 5th.

Looks good.

But....

1) NH-D15 is better then NH-D14

2) MX-4 is better than Arctic Silver 5

Just watch the height of your ram. You may not be able to fit it under that Noctua cooler

how do you know if it's gonna cost 500 dollars, wait for it to be relesed and replan it your build. Also next time use pcpartticker export/markup like to post your build.

Price isn't really an issue for me so I just slapped $500. I'm hoping it'd be around $500.

Care to explain? I'm new to PC building and I don't know what you mean by that.

Is there a better ram out there that could fit?

 

These should fit.

Hi nitori,

 

The build looks quite fine to me. One suggestion about the storage – the WD Caviar Blue is a reliable drive, but you might want to experience the performance of the HDDs from the WD Black line (http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=760) . If you're planning heavy gaming, you would need fast read and write speed and could definitely benefit from a HDD, which is especially designed for gaming.

 

I'd be happy to answer any further questions of course.
