First time computer builder here,Need help with build.

[ozisike]

Okay so i've been planing on building a computer for months now, I've been researching and what now and i got this build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/ZdHdP6

I am on a budget so i cant go higher than 1k. My question is, IS my build good for the price, Did i make the right decision on the parts? the card i can get for 300 used, Or just buy it new for 400.

Pretty sure i can just take out some drive bays for the card and buy a 6 pin cord and i'll be all good.

Edit: I do plan on ocing a bit, If heat is a issue i can always liquid cool later, But for now i wanna try the fan cooling out.

TBH I think you can get a better case for cheaper eg Fractal design r4/5/s

What's up with that 290x price?

Its like that cause its sold out at alot of places, Its on amazon though for 400, Or used for 300.

Everything looks good. the LGA1150 socket gives upgrade (and downgrade) potential. And this:

That NZXT case is so overpriced

You could buy a strip of green LEDs that connect to usb and run them round your case. Linus did that once
