So this will be my first ever PC build. I live in Australia and have a budget around the $1000 mark (can stretch if its worth it). I mostly enjoy first person shooters. Planetside 2, battlefield, overwatch, but I'd like to get into other games such as LoL, Skyrim, Witcher. I haven't done a lot of gaming because I've only ever had a poor laptop. Main questions about my build are; do I need a cpu cooler? and could money be better spent/saved anywhere.

Get a better PSU, B1 is crap, perhaps B2 (500W is enough). 

Please quote our replys so we get a notification and can reply easily. Never cheap out on a PSU, or I will come to watch the fireworks.
