So far this is my new build and everything I want in it. I was wondering if this is the kind of build that i can basically play just about every new game coming out and if there is anyway i can make a computer maybe just as good that will make it a little cheaper. I plan on sticking with intel/Nvidia and will not go with AMD/Radeon. If anyone knows of some parts on here i can change to make it a little cheaper but just as good please help.

Is it best to go with Haswell over Ivy?

Why not? Haswell performs better, has better integrated graphics (try out VirtuMVP), consumes less power and LGA 1155 is a dead socket, etc.

Oh ok thank you for the info. Oh another thing, the mobo that you listed, is it the best kind of micro mobo for the price?

No. You can get better, but the board isn't bad. I would personally go for an ASUS Z87 Gryphon.

It's worth it for the better mobos alone.

Why not AMD?
