This build okay? (Gaming/editing) going for a blue and white build

Perfx

Seems fine, you can save up a little by getting a 650-600W PSU since 750W is a bit too much and get skylake with the money you saved.

Also get 2*8GB instead of 4*4GB since it's easier to upgrade later on.

i would say 600W PSU and a more expensive graphics card :) also 2x8GB for RAM, i see no need to go with skylake here because its more expensive, and thats more cash to spend on a GPU, the CPU is good enough anyway :D

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

Looks very nice! (390X and 980 is less value but if you can afford them then sure)

If you are going for a black and white build, (based on mobo choice.) the CRYORIG H7 is perfect for that with it's black shroud on top, and casement but white fanblade.  This, is combined with excellent performance that beats the Hyper212.

For the Best builds and Price lists here is a world where many points of the price have been predefined already for your convenience!

The Xeon E3 1231 V3 IS BETTER Than the Core i5 4690K and a Significantly better value for the non-overclockers or value shoppers.

The OS is like a kind food, Try it before saying if you like it or don't.

well you first mentioned that you didnt want to overclock, so i obliged and gave you the best value chip thats not overclockable

 

edit: well its your money, so i guess this is as much as i can say lol
besides, getting more opinion from people is great as well

 

additional info: if you wanna go overclock, might as well go z170 platform, but you might have to drop the blue and white build, there not many colourful ram at ddr4 as it is at ddr3

the xeon 1231 v3 is similar to an i7 4790, but without integrated graphics (you dont need it since you have a gpu)

the best part about it is its priced like an i5, so its a really good value

 

performance wise, it performs like an i7 in games and editting

 

the only downside is that you cant overclock it
