Hi 
I would like some help with my gaming build. I have not built a computer before and I don't really know that much about computer components. After reading a lot of different things online, I put together a list of parts that I think make an okay build, but I'm not really completely sure. Nor am I sure that all the components will work together or not. So I would really like your thoughts on the build and some suggestions if you have any I would like to get the build a bit cheaper if possible, but if not I'm ok with the price. Thank you so much in advance for any help or suggestions you can give
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/FgY3Mp ] PCPartPicker part list [/url] (doesn't including a monitor though, which I need)
Approximate Purchase Date: Soon. Anywhere between today to a few weeks from now.
Budget Range: Would like to spend around $1500. No more than $2000. The cheaper the better.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Watching Youtube/Twitch/Netflix/DVD's, Regular internet use. Maybe some video editing.
Parts Not Required: Mouse.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I would prefer to stay away from newegg because of the taxes for the state I reside in. But I am fine with it if has a better deal (with tax included) than other sites or is the only site selling the item.
Location: California, United States
Parts Preferences: I really like the CPU, Motherboard, and Video Card I've picked out, but I would be willing to choose differently if there was a good reason to. The Case and the Keyboard are both things that my Fiance wants so unless there is a pretty good reason to not get them, I'd like to stick with those.
Overclocking: Maybe someday, but its not important to me at the moment so probably not that important.
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe
Are you buying a monitor: Yes
Monitor Resolution: Would like 1920x1080, but willing to consider other.
Additional Comments: My biggest question was about the Ram and the Power Supply... I felt pretty confident on the rest (till I went to buy it at least :lol But I really had no clue on those 2 things. The fan also. Was going to go with something cheaper.. but the part list said it might not fit, so I went with the Noctua, but I didn't know if there was something better for cheaper.
I also couldn't decide on a monitor. I've found 3 I think I like, but I am totally open to suggestions on different ones. The 3 are the http://pcpartpicker.com/part/lg-monitor-24gm77 ] LG 24GM77 [/url], http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-monitor-vg248qe ] Asus VG248QE [/url], and the http://pcpartpicker.com/part/acer-monitor-umfg6aab01 ] Acer GN246HL [/url]. My favorite was either the LG or the Asus one. Are either of those okay monitors?
Is there anything else that I need, or that I should add?
Sorry for so many questions, I'm just so nervous that I'm going to buy the wrong thing or buy something stupidly overpriced when there is something better for cheaper. Thank you again
