you should just pick up a 120mm and put it any where. where air can flow over the mobo if you dont wanna do that then just get a high end air cooler

My budget for a new computer is max 1464 US Dollars(12 000 NOK)

But I can buy the parts, and have a buddy put it together for me though ;)

So if you have good/great/awesome build for a gaming computer in that pricerange, I'd be interested :D
 
Oh yea you can get a much better computer for that price.

I put a 850w PSU in there because you still have about $300 left in your budget, getting this PSU gives you the option to add a second GTX 970 if you want to. (its also a very good PSU for the price)
