Additional Comments: I want a gaming PC that will last for around four years. Must be able to play games at 1920x1080p @ 60+fps on high/very high/ultra settings on a single monitor. I don't plan to upgrade parts for around four years. I do plan on using 2 monitors in the future (One for gaming and one for browsing the web/YouTube while I wait for the raid to be ready).
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Dont have a computer and need a gaming PC since next gen console gaming sucks.
What games do you play/will play: World of Warcraft, CS: GO, League of Legends, Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls, Battlefield 4, Dragon Age Inquisition, World of Tanks, Witcher 3, and other games that will come out in the next four years.
Q1: Is a non reference cooler gonna have heat issues in the Corsair 250D? If so I'll get the EVGA GTX 970 Superclocked $360 blower style GPU instead.
