maybe going with an i5 6500 instead of 6600, since its just 100mhz more for a lot more pricier

and a hyper 212 will do the job

and maybe buy a case fan or two (iirc s340 only comes with two) for 2 intake 1 exhaust, which will be optimal

 

other than that, no problem

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

At a quick glance the first thing I noticed is that the mouse you selected is an older, discounted mouse. The new model of the mouse is much more expensive and would have you opt for the g303 mouse instead which is about the same price with out the 12 button layout.

Also, you might as well get the K series processor.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
