Build Rework

Hello everyone. So in the past I have done builds on here of what I want not what I need. To fix this I have redone my build and brought down the price a lot. Please note that everything marked as bought simply means it will be paid for in a different way such as a gift or using giftcards and is not final. The monitor however is a deal on craigslist. Any tips or suggestions are appreciated. Also I'd like the non-purchased items to stay around 1k-1.2k

Did you choose the Dark Rock for looks or performance? There are performance-wise better options out there.

works fine:)

try to lay the case on the side with the mobo installed and let it hang over the table so you can access your mobo from beyond to mount your cooler. It'll be way easier this way.

Lol I even had a hard time installing my cooler with 4 hands and 2 legs involved. That' is going to be fun. Maybe I am just a scrub :D

More looks, but aesthetics are kinda important to me.
