Go to solution Solved by Manny Calavera,

You dont need to buy noctua lp cooler. Cooler master have gremlin or whatever its called, and it fits in there.

Dont buy headset for this budget. Must be good quality headphone. Then a mic.

Buy good mouse.

What you want to buy now is your choice.

Yes... Minecraft/FPS/TPS ;)

Competitive? Or just some casual gaming where you don't need to sound whore :P?

I'd opt for a decent mouse first, then a nice headset if you don't need to be actively listening out for things.

Hmmmm, well only get alright perphs won't do any good, so if you believe that being able to hear the enemy easier/clearer will help you more-so than a better mouse than a headset should be your first course of action.

Which one then?

No idea what the Spawn is lol, but I do know that the M45 is a decent mouse for the money. Doesn't have things that aren't very important, but still has really good specs design.

i had the cm 130.  aio is the key. with aircoolers you get thermal problems. it's just too small. I guess you do nothing for your money as you do not know what to do with it. I'll tell you what I always say. Go out, go drinking with friends or invite your girlfriend if you have one. 
If you do not want to leave your house and do not have a gf you should save it so you have enough money to buy something when you need it.. amybe wait until you are able to upgrade cpu or gpu. Just don't waste your money. I don't want to sound harsh but you will appreciate the saved money once you need it. trust me

                                                                                      wow... pretty empty here...

Yeh I just did a quick Google search and found it out, I'd suggest the M45 over the Spawn.
