Hi,
I want to build a new PC over the summer and wanted to know how it is. I want to use it for modern games, such as Titanfall, Skyrim, and ESO with decent graphics and a good fps rate, and also I want to use it for school work. If there is anything that can be better for the same/lower price, please let me know! (Thermal Compund comes with the hsf, right?)
