I have a few ?s about some of the stuff 1. the case will it be able to fit the air cooling i choose plus the ram sticks without having much difficulty 2.Could i get away with 850w on the power supply instead of 1000w  3.The mother board chosen is it a decent one 4.do i need a optical drive if i never plan to use cds and stuff. 5. Will the air cooler keep the CPU cool?

 

This pc is gonna be used for world of Warcraft and just general computer things like typing internet browsing Etc. and maybe some higher end games down the line. I don't plan on over clocking. My Budget is $2,400 this as is costs $2,174

you could run that system on a 500W PSU no problem

get something like a 650 or 750W from EVGA or seasonic, thats more than enough

You could get away with 650W.  You don't need the Intel network card.  Looks good otherwise.  By the way, is this a prebuilt list or are you building it yourself?

You do not need such a big PSU, you don't need an optical drive, I haven't ever needed one, and if you don't want to use CDs, no point in getting one. With your budget, I would DEFINITELY get a water cooled build, my AIO (below) is good, and I would suggest it.

 

Looks good tho :)

$2100 is a little steep for all of those components don't you think?  Maybe i'm just tired.....

It's overpriced. I'm not sure why you'd even want to spend that much money for just playing games like WoW and for some browsing. I can suggest a cheaper build you can get if you're solely just gaming and I will link NCIX prices so they can build it for you for $50. How about that?

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Trust me, the build I'll link below will have better performance than the CyberPowerPC above. For about $500 cheaper. Like I said, get NCIX to build it for $50 and save the money.
