Also I already have the graphics card, but thought it would give y'all the whole picture also little late to get input considering it is all already ordered, but i sat down with the guys at the computer store and they worked with me on each part.

Looks good to me Rave! =)

Looks good! One thing worth considering... while I've never had any problems with them myself, Seagate has caught some flak recently for hard drive failures. I might swap that one out for either a Western Digital Blue SSHD or a WD Black.

Thanks ill check into that

My personal taste would be to go for an Asus Mobo but it looks really good otherwise.

Edit: Also for the case you can go cheaper if you're getting a mid sized case $50-60.

 

[RaveKnave]

Do they have the same case but smaller?

 

[panzerghost]

Same size but cheaper. $120 is high for a mid size case like that.

 

[complexmath]

Depends though. Corsair cases are really well designed, so building with them tends to be a pleasant experience. But then again, if someone else is doing the build...

 

[RaveKnave]

I did change to this hard drive WD Blue 1TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD10EZEX - OEM

Also this come in white LG USB 2.0 External CD/DVD Rewriter With M-Disc Support (White)-model GP65NW60

 

[RaveKnave]

Also with the case if you look down on the new egg listing it had photos of all the neat wire hide a ways to keep it real tight and organized

 

[RaveKnave]

Well with the help of CM website I was able to change some of these parts around before reordering, glad it went that way so i could refine the build

My last build had a Seagate hard drive and I never had an issue with it. However that was a few years ago so I can't comment on recent hard drives. I also prefer more wattage on the PSU but not sure it's needed. That's my only two cents. I think it looks good :)

CORSAIR RMx RM850X 850W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Nvidia Sli ready and crossfire support Power ... bummed it up

 

[RaveKnave]

any opinion on the monitor ASUS VX238H-W White 23" 1ms (GTG) HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor I want a white one, but I have a old asus from 2010, thought mine as well update this as well

 

[complexmath]

Yeah (NVidia) GPUs have gotten really power efficient these days, but I'm of the opinion that a PSU will perform better and last longer if you aren't running it at 90% capacity. Something in the 800W range seems preferable if you don't mind the extra $20 or whatever.

 

[complexmath]

I don't see anywhere what the max refresh rate is on that monitor, though the 1ms is nice. The reviews I see online basically boil down to "it's not an IPS display, so color accuracy isn't great and neither is the viewing angle." So overall not bad, given the caveats.

If you're willing to pay for it, here's the G-Sync monitor I have:

Very nice monitor Rave

 

[RaveKnave]

I think ill need to keep shopping around

 

[RaveKnave]

I found a few different ones

SAMSUNG S24E370DL Glossy White PLS 23.6" 4ms Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor; Free-Sync Compatible w/ Wireless Phone ...

ASUS VX238H-W White 23" 1ms (GTG) HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor

HP 23xw White 23" 7ms HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor IPS

 

[panzerghost]

The Free-Sync monitor would be a waste if you don't have an AMD card. It's hard not to recommend an IPS; they are amazing and something you can't appreciate until you see it in person.
