What you guys think is that a good rig for solid 1080p60fps gaming with a room for an upgrade later?

Note: I'm not sold on this case so it can be changed anytime :)

I wanted to go with Hydro Series H45 for sealed cpu cooling but I'm not sure if it's good or not and how it compares to the chosen noctua fan

Try this- it's almost the same thing but packs a little more power- the 380 outperforms the 960 and only costs $10 more :) also, that power supply isn't very good- this one is a bit better (I hope):

Looks very good! Everything in there is just waiting to be upgraded when you get the money! :D

I say jiggly-bytes when I see "GB".

It goes down better than you would expect.

Get a better power supply unit, such as the XFX TS 550W. The GTX 960 is overpriced for $200, get the RX 480 4GB instead. An aftermarket model such as the Sapphire Nitro and PowerColor Devil should be good choices.

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

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

This, but if you can spare 4 bucks, you can get a R9 380x instead of a 380

I agree either go with the r9 390 or the Rx 480 
If you prefer Nvidia maybe go with the 1060 if you can get your hands at one the gtx 960 is definitely not worth the 200$

You would be better going with 1 x 8GB Ram so that you have room for another 8GB in the future.

 

You don't need a $60 cooler.
