Notice there's no HDD or OS because i'm going to use the ones in my current PC (Around 1TB).

Do i need to change something? Am i ready to go?

It's only 67$, though RAM seems to be more expensive these days for some reason

 

My guess would be noise or the length of the card. Some cases might not accommodate a long card.
Specualting....if 3 fans then they need to be smaller fans and spin more to compete with larger 2 fan system.

Can you link the Sapphire model your talking about?
