dude ask everything in one topic its so much easier for everyone =) 

 

the PSU is on there? 

and check your mobo for compatibility with that cpu as you might need to update the bios before it will work, not looked into it though, also, on a side note your build seems ok to me 

 

edit... also your buying a windows 8.1 disk but have no optical drive? that gonna be a problem?

 

edit again...wrong link -_-

Changed the HDD to something cheaper and will work just fine, added a power supply, changed the WIFI card because G is rather slow so I changed it to a card that uses B/G/N

I beg of you to please get a better network adapter, something N or AC definately not B or G they are extremely slow outdated, and I've had issues using older network standard cards.adapters before.

Something like these would be good:

http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-WN725N-Wireless-Adapter-Miniature/dp/B008IFXQFU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1416454307&sr=8-1&keywords=network+adapter

http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-WDN4800-Wireless-Express-Low-profile/dp/B007GMPZ0A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1416454307&sr=8-3&keywords=network+adapter

and If you're willing to spend a good bit more for something awesome:

http://www.amazon.com/Asus-USB-AC56-Dual-band-Wireless-AC1200-Adapter/dp/B00FB45USW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1416454402&sr=8-2&keywords=asus+network+adapter

You have to install an OS yourself and that build doesn't include an OS. Windows is usually just under $100 or a bit over depending on pricing or versions

EDIT:

You shouldn't pay $100 for 1tb get something better like these:

http://www.amazon.com/WD-Blue-Desktop-Hard-Drive/dp/B0088PUEPK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1416454604&sr=8-1&keywords=1tb+hard+drive

http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Barracuda-3-5-Inch-Internal-ST2000DM001/dp/B005T3GRN2/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1416454634&sr=8-3&keywords=2tb+hard+drive

Gaming Rig - Excalibur - CPU: i5 6600k @ 4.1GHz, CPU Cooler: Hyper 212 Evo, Mobo: MSI Gaming M3 RAM: 16GB Corsair @2400MHz, GPU: EVGA 1060, Case: NZXT Phantom Full Tower (Red)

My Virtualization Server - Dell R710: 2x X5570s @ 2.93GHz with 32GB DDR3 RAM [Web Server, OSX, Plex, Reverse Proxy]

Got you a cheaper and better case it has a glass panel like the previous case you had. Added an optical drive and the OS system and that will be your total cost.

I'd use @mintras1 's build if I were you, but use an i3 at your price range, or better yet, get a Pentium G3258, a Hyper 212 EVO and any sort of ATX motherboard for Haswell/Haswell refresh that you like and overclock that thing. It should save you a bit of money for an OS.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
