I am in the process of planning my first pc build and wanted some thought about my plan and even some advice. I would like to know if things don't make sense, if they don't work together or if there is anything I should know about the products. The HDD is not final and I don't really care about the brand or model as long as it is 7200 rpm. Thanks.

Looks pretty good to me. Although I would swap the s340 out for a H700i,  fractal r6, lian li dynamic, or phanteks pro m. 

 

Also you have no extra case fans, the ones that come with are alright but your can get better

Fanboys are the worst thing to happen to the tech community World. Chief among them are Apple fanboys.

Umm, i would swap that i5 out for an i7 and get a simple aircooler for now, if pricing is decent.

Also, you can cheap out a bit on the motherboard and the ram.

You don't need 3200Mhz ram, it barely impacts Intel CPU's.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3
