Another First Time Build

[Darkseiders]

So I've been trapped in the laptop/iGPU for too long, and I NEED to get a nice gaming computer. I think I have covered all the bases with this, and I have a $1200 US budget, minus peripherals. This is the build.

Thoughts?

Change the Seagate Barracuda to a Western Digital Blue, get rid of those expensive fans, and with that money saved, get a Noctua cooler that I forgot the name of.

Looks OK, but you don't really need any more fans

I don't think so. Looks like I should go Hitachi.
