CPU is between this and a cheap i5-4430. IDK which to get for GAMING. This build is for gaming and gaming alone.
MOBO because it's unlocked and looks nice with the black/red theme I have going on.
Video card r9 280 is what fits in my price range with the best FPS.
CASE because IT IS SEXY and smaller than a mid tower. Little more expensive but this is my first build and I don't want to go 30 dollars cheaper for something less than what I want.
PSU because I believe this one is a good quality one. I think.
I know nothing of wireless adapters so any help will be appreciated there too.
Monitor because it's huge for the cheapest price.
Any suggestions on changes? especially another CPU for gaming?
My budget is under 900 ALL together.
