So a great person helped me to optimize this build on my last post, I've switched from an inferior GTX 960 4GB to an R9 380 4GB and from a fourth gen processor to a Skylake 6th generation Intel processor. I'm going to purchase this build and I think if looks very nice, any last thoughts? I have mouse and keyboard (k70 RGB :D) I'll be using it for 1080p gaming on high settings on games like Dark Souls 3, Star Wars Battlefront, Fallout 4, League Of Legends. Thank you so much to all who commented and and helped and especially user StreetGuru for his help!

Lol no need to buy external thermal paste considering the 212 includes it, and you have a non-OCable chip

Doesn't need a 750W psu. A 550W is already enough.

My point was it was a g2 instead of a gs which he had previously. I saw a 650 watt for the same price so I opted for a 750 watt for the same price. Make changes as you see fit, I was only helping. ?

If you've previously won the build off please pm me so we can get something worked out.

Doesn't make you any less of a jerk either right? Damn man I was only trying to help and you corrected me and I said that I was wrong, that should be the end of it. This is high school crap here.

That's fine, I don't plan to Overclock my PC.

Exactly, so no need to buy extra thermal paste, considering the stuff that comes with the 212. You can remove it. Save 5 bucks ;)
