Anyone willing to check this build for issues with compatibility, value etc.. Recommendations would be useful.
Budget is around $2 - 2.5k and this system will be primarily used for games aiming for graphics / high performance. I've not included a monitor for now but will be picking up a 4k set soon.
Will also be using it for audio / visual software and graphic development programs.
Few additional (stupid) questions: Do i need the wifi card to connect to wifi or does the motherboard come with wifi capabilities? Are the 2 additional case fans along with the 2 that comes with the case and the cpu cooling system necessary? Am i over / under reaching with some parts or am i being sensible and future proofing? Is the 2GB SSD fine or should i combine e.g 500GB SSD and a 1.5GB HDD?
Also to note: I've been using Macs and IOS almost exclusively for the last 10 years, is there anything i should know about the windows operating system specifically. i.e is it beneficial to partition the hard drives for use of different programs? How does 32 - 64bit affect most programs on the OS?
