So I’m Building a pc for first time and I need some help about the components, I work with 3D software like 3d max, maxwell, vray and edit video too, but no to a pro level, I just finish uni and I’m starting in business so about getting quadro’s and that I’ll come in a few years . Also like to play games I’m at League atm, but I never had a chance to play those games with fancy graphics so here is my chance to do it :D,  basically I want that you tell me if I can replace something with another thing cheaper o better according to my needs so I can save money because I’ll spend a lot with shipping because I’m on México(still cheaper that those excessive expensive 500/700 usd gtx 970 in here)  hope in the future I can add more RAM and another video card so my first question is:

 Should I get a full tower or a mid-one if I plan to SLI 2 cards?

Ok, about power supply I know nothing

should I buy extra fans?

Extra pieces I don’t know?( cooler, thermal, cables or those things come to my mind)

 

Well thanks for the time and sorry for my bad english :D

The phantom should be all right

With a SLI you can have a mid or full tower.

If you live in mexico buy MX-4 Thermal paste and you can add one or two fan

A mid tower should be fine.

remplace the adata sp600 by a Corsair MX100 256gb

So i like this build, ill add the corsair like warplan said and i think im going with the Nzxt case and maybe buy 2x8 rams because i wanna reach 32 one day, thx a lot for your help :D

did you mean crucial mx100 warplane?? that's what i found not corsair ones, and  about te mobo  specs says that "DDR3-1333 / 1600 / 1866" so it is pointless to get higger rams like thoses ddr3-2133? and other thing should i wait to black friday to buy the parts online? well thx a lot for your help guys :D

 

Total: $1904.21

Can you do the Mail in rebate from Mexico ? If so then go for the EVGA Supernova G2 rather than the NEX.
