Ok this is what I added/changed I want to make sure you guys think my case will fit and everything looks good and if their is anything i should add like fans cooling? maybe a bigger case and my budget is around 1200 to 1300 so I could add some its my first build so i want to be careful and I might overclock down the road but not really sure because i think i can run anything fine without over clocking with a 770

I would change that CPU to get a i5-4670K and then change the motherboard to a Z87 because the Haswell CPUs are a 1150 Sockets not 1155 which are Ivy Bridge, also I would invest in better quality fans like silverstone AP122 or AP123, Corsair AF120 or SP120. Other than that solid build.

I heard windows is free :D

as far as everyone on this forum knows,you heard wrong.

because if for some reason you didn't hear wrong,and your suggesting that someone,somehow,obtain it through illegal measures it would be very bad.

I do already have win 7 on a other harddrive on my crappy HP could i transfer that over to the new rig and mvitkun thank you i will consider that

if u bought your laptop or desktop pre installed with windows 7, u cant transfer it. its not actualy a full copy of windows 7 that u would buy in a store in a stilly modified copy. this is what i have heard i have never tryed it though before.

also i have never used an ssd what would I want to store on it?

the OS,any programs you intend to have start with windows,any programs you use often.

 

also as said above,you can not transfer an OEM copy of windows to a  different pc.

provided you have the  genuine code it'd be perfectly fine just to torrent windows 7 just to get the installation files,then you'd just put the files onto a usb.

 

or you could buy any random $15 optical drive.
