Budget? What will the build be used for?

 

My recommendations are to get a lower end case and ditch the thermal paste.

Build: CPU: Intel Core i5 4690k | CPU Cooler: Hyper 212 Evo | Motherboard: MSI Z97 Gaming 5 | RAM: 8GB G-Skill Ares 1600Mhz CL9 | Storage: 120GB Samsung 840 Evo + WD Blue 1TB 64MB Cache + Seagate Barracuda 2TB 64MB Cache | GPU: MSI GTX 960 | Case: Cooler Master Storm Enforcer | Power Supply: EVGA 600B Non-Modular |

Is the rig only for gaming?

 

And do you have a budget at all?

 

Are you asking us for something more conservative on price but better for the money?

 

Or is money not an issue?

2500 but i can go over a couple hundred i will be gaming mainly possibly youtube
