Hi! this is my first post here and let me just say this site is amazing! I really appreciate all the help.

Down to business. For my first build here is what i plan to get plus the things im still puzzled about:

Psu: seasonic g-650 650w (bought)
mobo: msi z97 gaming 5
Cpu: intel core i5 4690k
Gpu: msi geforce gtx 970 gaming 4g
Cpu fan: coolermaster hyper 212 evo
storage:samsung mz75e250
RAM:?(100$ and under)
Case:?(80$ and under)
Case fans:is this a thing?

And ill also need a new screen for about 100$ as mine died(this was written via phone)

Well thats that. I'd really appreciate any advice or help, thanks!
(I accidentally posted this twice sorry about that)

Case - http://pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-case-cas340wb1

Monitor - http://pcpartpicker.com/part/acer-monitor-etws0hpa01

I suggest you put an extra $50 for the monitor because there's nothing really good you can get for $100. With $50 more you can get a "24 monitor with 1-2 ms response times and good colors.

If you decide to put some extra money on the monitor - http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-monitor-vs248hp

Otherwise the $100 Acer I mentioned above is good too, it's just that it's "21.5
 
Ok so after some check ups i realised that i underestimated my countrys crazy shipping fares and taxes meaning that the crucial memory and the nzxt case would be too pricy(sadly). So ill gladly take -HH-'s advice for the 100$ ram and case.
 


Where do you live?

 
I live in israel. For the time being ive decided to go for the g.skill ripjaws (f3-12800cl9D) and the corsair 200r. Went for this case mainly for the rave reviews on part picker and the good price at my local stores. Any other suggestions would be great! especially other screens as im still looking for options i can find locally.
 
Awsome! Wasnt too sure about the screen. Now for the case ive actually looked at the fractal and the main problam is that even locally it doubles in price next to the corsair 200r, is it a good investment?

As far as psu goes i think that the seasonic g-650 should be good enough(?). All that remains is the g.skill ripjaws x 8gb (f3-12800cl9D) should i go for it?
 
Great! That means everything is tied up! Thank you guys so much you helped me a ton!

Now i just need to visit a few stores and ill have everything i need. Oh and again, thanks!
