Gotcha. Thanks dude.

Thanks guys. I actually already have an externel 1TB I was planning on using for media storage. Any reason why you'd recommend standard air cooling over liquid? I'm kind of clueless in this department, was under the impression that it was more effective for some reason though.

Nothing?

Cool, I'll settle for 24" then. Thanks! I'm coming from a 27" AIO @ 2560x1440 so I think I may just have my hopes a bit too high for a standalone monitor. Is there anything you'd add/change with my part list? My budget allows for a little more, if there's something worth adding.

I will also need a monitor for this....I'm assuming there's no such thing as a 24" that supports 2560x1440? Seems like 1920x1080 would look stretched out on a 23" or 24"

Hi, I'm looking to build my first gaming PC. The last build I attempted kind of fell through, so I thought I'd start from scratch. My budget allows for more than the total cost of what this came out to, but I'm hoping to not run into any errors hardware-wise. Approximate Purchase Date: ASAP...

Thanks for the replies. Right after I posted I saw that it only totals to around ~570W so dropping the 850W to 600 saves me quite a bit. I have a spare 500GB HDD to use for data, so that's why the 128GB SSD is all that's listed for that. For the time being, I think I should be safe with what...

The H100 isn't much more, so I've swapped the H60 for that on my part list, thanks man. Anyone else have any changes they'd make? Looking to pull the trigger on this ASAP. Thanks guys.

Yeah, push-pull is what I was implying by 2 fans, sorry.

With the H100, is one fan adequate? Does the rest of it look ok? Thanks dudes.

Also forgot to add that while I'm only getting one video card for now, Crossfire is something I'd definitely like to look into down the road.

Hi, I haven't built a PC in a solid 10 years, and I'm looking to get back into it. Can anyone give me some insight on this setup? Am I missing something? Do I have anything unnecessary? I'm going to be using this mostly for gaming and music. Thanks. Case: Corsair Carbide Series 400R Mid-tower...
