About an hour ago I cancelled an order i made with ibuypower last night because i decided to just make it myself. After looking around for a bit i think i have a decent build for a pretty good gaming pc, but this is my first self-build so I wanted some feedback. I am also concerned with everything fitting in my case and having proper airflow. I also dont know how the ports would work with my case (of if thats even a problem to begin with). Would someone kindly take a look at my build and give some feedback on it? Im also looking to keep the price at or under 850, as i'll still need to buy an OS for it.

Replaced a good chunk of parts with better options. No need for Z170 if you're buying a locked processor. I also upped the size of the motherboard from mini-itx to full atx. Added an SSD for the boot drive, and a better PSU. No graphics card is included since you can get a GTX1070 for around 380

I know a bit about GPU and CPU quality but not too much on other parts. Also I had forgotten about the next gen completely. The 1070 doesnt come out till almost mid june, but thats fine since ill have time to save for a new monitor to handle that beast of a card. And I also wanted to squeeze in a SSD, so its great you managed to get one in. Many thanks friend, Ill start ordering parts when i get my cash back from ibuypower. :lol:
