I was thinking of building this system when MSI announced that they were producing a White/Black motherboard and graphic card (GTX 970).

 

And seeing that FATE hates me os much that....the Singapore  Sim Lim shops won't be bringing in the White GTX 970s Iam screw from making this build... so for those who is intending to build a nice white/Black build, You guys can use the plans if you want to

 

I just hope it tuns out nice and someone builds it and post it on the Linus site

You could buy online. For example Amazon or even Newegg. Amazon wise, if you can't ship in to Singapore, try using services like VPOST or Comgateway.

 

PS. Personally i think Comgateway is cheaper compared to Vpost.

Hey Daniel91,
 
This does look like a nice planned build. If I was going for 16GB of memory, I would go for 2x8GB to make a better use of the dual-channel support. Also you can consider replacing the WD Black drive with WD Blue for a budget build. It has just slightly lower speeds and is also good and reliable drive. Also you can go with a bit smaller PSU - 500W would be enough for the more budget-friendly build.

thanks Captain WD I'll update the list, regarding the RAM in Singapore it's hard to find 8GB dual sticks of furies but if you can find it in your country go for it

 

the last time I used Vpost I had a 12% tax for the product my dad and I ordered
