Everything looks good, do you plan on overclocking?

That's a great build that should work really well for a good long time. Only thing I would suggest is add an 120GB SSD in there for your OS and use the 1TB as storage.

Are you 12? http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/352164-first-pc-build-please-give-some-tips/

 

Or maybe 13? http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/350258-how-is-this-build/#entry4764810

 

I think you are 13... http://pcpartpicker.com/p/68Bzgs

 

Yup, DEFINITELY 13. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/JtQKgs

 

 

Stop posting new threads. Also, to anyone around here, don't give him any tips. This kid's gotta learn....

It is a decent build.

 

At the moment, the following is better. It includes an ssd and a much better psu. However, you should repost a week or so before you are ready to actually buy your new system. Hardware changes frequently and prices fluctuate a great deal.
