I don't have a monitor currently picked out for the build, so if anyone has a good suggestion for a good monitor that'd be sick. I'm trying to keep the build under 1,000 USD (not including monitors and taxes and all that junk). I feel like I can do better in some areas of the build, specifically the CPU cooler and the RAM sticks,

Thanks in advance!

I have seen reviews for the Peerless Assassin, and it is an excellent cooler. I have seen nothing on the Phantom Spirit. Their is an RGB version of the PA, just as an FYI.

The Phantom Spirit is slightly better than the peerless assassin cooler for the same money

That one is a highly recommended one on the forums here. I don’t think you’ll find a much better unit for the money imo.

alright

I would also suggest sticking with the seasonic focus GX over the be Quiet pure power 12. The be quiet PSU uses a bit inferior capacitors.

But i would suggest the 12600k if its still within your budget.

Agreed. The 12600 k or kf are great chips for the money and give some upgrade to Intel 13th/14th gen later.

Swap over to the Phantom Spirit cooler from thermaltake as well for a slightly better cooler. I would also suggest getting G Skill RAM for a few dollars more, they come with a lifetime warranty from good company.

Sounds like with what you've got above, that should be decent for the budget.

Splitting hairs here as the 650 should be more than enough, but you may consider seeing how much an 850 watt psu is also so that you are set if you decide to get a wild hair and upgrade the gpu in a year or so.
