Additional Comments: Any feedback on my build so far is appreciated. Was planning on building a PC earlier this year, but waited and am ready now. I'm still a noob, but I put together a build based on what knowledge I have. Also, would like to note that I want a quiet machine so it doesn't bother me and/or give issues when mixing audio.

**Will be using USB audio for my music so I will not need a sound card
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My Macbook is outdated and want some thing reliable for my work. I also enjoy the games that are available only on PC (League of Legends, Skyrim, D3, BF3).
