Hi guys,

I`m looking forward building a new PC.

My budget is around 2000-2150$.(Whit OUT the GPU`s).

Looking for a mATX build(If you think i must go full ATX feel free to express your opinion).

GPU`s- Gygabyte G1 980 Windforce(2 in SLI).

My inspiration for this build was the Bitfenix Prodigy M.

Use this as reference.

 

Now for the tough part.

I intend on switching the stock side panel whit the windowed one.

Again some reference.

 

But in the process of planing I noticed that I might be lacking storage.

I mean 2 SSD isn`t that mush for a gaming system.

 

Also I intend on filling all the fans mounts: 2x120mm at the top;1x200(ish) bottom; and a 1x140mm at the back(this is most likely my CPU AIO cooler).

 

Last but not least the back and bottom fans are going to be LED,and my cables are going to be sleeved(maybe some LED strips too, who knows?) 

 

Sooo Im open to suggestions for the other hardware(NOTE. Im following a black and red color scheme ).

 

Sorry for any grammar mistakes.

And thanks in advance.

 

Note.I don`t include any monitors,keyboards etc. in the budget(Also no OS).

i wouldnt try and fit more than one gpu into the prodigy, too cramped and too much heat. thats my only reason to think against matx over atx.

I recommend the Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-gaming 5 motherboard if you want mATX. If you get a z97 board, you can have an m.2. SSD that wont take up any space in the case, and doesnt need wires. (so you can have 2 wired ssd's and a third m.2. onboard ssd with the OS installed)

 

As for case, maybe the Phanteks Enthoo Mini XL, Corsair air 240 (big maybe on that).

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs
