Im building my first pc and wondered if the parts are going to fit and if I could make it cheaper?
I am going to play games like League of legends, battlefield 4, arkham origins and so on on max settings at 1080p

Here are the specs that I were planning to use:

Solution
trimmed you down to $1024, while addig a hyper 212 cooler, increasing your ssd to 256 GB, and adding a 7200 RPM drive.

I dropped the PSU down to a 450W - before overclocking, this system uses only 343W! No need for a 750W system. if you plan a heavy overclock, an extra $10-20 for a 550W would still save compared to your original.

I went wuth a cheaper case, smaller, cheaper PSU, cheaper memory, cheaper but faster hdd, and a slightly cheaper motherboard

First off I must say that I am impressed on how fast I was answered (this being my first post on the forum :D). I only wondered that are these brands for the parts you picked good? I have read on the internet that for example rosewill is not such a good brand, but then again I might be wrong since I have not built a PC and have no experience with the parts quality. Also I just wondered that If I ever went SLI would that require another motherboard and PSU (again I am new to this stuff so I don't know). Anyways thanks :D

Ps. Sorry If my english isn't so good, its not my native language XD

 
Rosewill is Newegg's house brand. their ARC and Capstone series of psus are very high quality units. AS Rock is one of the best motherboards. Team Vulcan and A-Data are both good memory builders. If you were to do SLI, you'd need a bigger psu, but the board is already capable. However, at 1920x1080, you will probly not need to SLI until after the 970 is obsolete.
