The h100i comes with 2x fans already.

You can save some money from the PSU- you don't need 650W. 500W would be plenty.

Buy a bigger SSD- you'll find that 128GB fills up VERY fast!

Thanks for the response! As for the SSD I would like to only put my OS on it and the rest on my HDD, as the prices for SSD storage are quiet high.

You could also just go for the non pro 850 ssd so you can get higher capacity if price is really at its max.

That's true, I could get the 850 EVO 250GB for about the same price as the 850 PRO 128GB

Day to day usage, you won't notice the difference. I'd shoot for the EVO.

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

Go do it. I have both... And I did not notice a huge difference. 

 

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.
