Fistly dont shop at staples the prices for those things are way too expensive. Secondly wait for skylake and see how things turn out. Thirdly dont go for that SSD it is slow

PC is Intel Core i5 6400, GIgabyte H170 Gaming 3, Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x4GB 2400Mhz ,Sandisk Ultra Plus 128GB, WD Blue 1TB, NZXT S340, ASUS Geforce GTX 960. Fractal Design Tesla R2 650W. http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/793XNG. Graphics card choices don't always have to be dictated on performance. If you want the game stream and power consumption of the GTX 970 get that. If you want raw performance of the R9 390 get that. In the end we are all gamers, so what if your buddy gets an extra 5 fps?

Motherboard - Good choice

Cooler - WTF IS THAT LOL

SSD - I highly recommend staying away from the V300 SSDNOW series, get an MX200 or 850 EVO

CPU - Get 4690k if you can

4690K // 212 EVO // Z97-PRO // Vengeance 16GB // GTX 770 GTX 970 // MX100 128GB // Toshiba 1TB // Air 540 // HX650

Logitech G502 RGB // Corsair K65 RGB (MX Red)

How about this? it should preform much better

Also get a GPU upgrade ASAP use the extra 90 dollars to go twords a 380 or a 280x and a ATX board should fit in the case, as most mid towers will

yeah i just found those on staples just searching through stuff to upgrade, do you guys know if those would fit into the case? or would i have to buy a new case, im new to this pc gaming, im just over console bull shit

you shouldn't need a new case and for the love of god never use staples again, it should fit into the case, if you want to be safe, and if you use my build you can take out 20-50 dollars for a cheap case of your choice
