I don't know if I need a Wireless Network Adapter since this motherboard has the Wi-Fi Go! ability along with the Wireless/Bluetooth antenna that it comes with (see here: http://www.legitreviews.com/article/2211/)

Asus Z87-PRO ATX LGA1150 Motherboard(http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-z87pro)

I don't want to throw $30 into to my build for a Wi-Fi Adapter when I don't have to! :D

The extra fan was for mostly aesthetic purposes to replace the case fan that comes with it. Plus the Corsair fans are supposedly better.

The SSD is a combo deal with the Mobo ($35 off on Newegg). I don't know why the PCPartsPicker isn't reporting this as such. Swapping that out with the NCIX 92.99 will actually cost me more in the end... but thanks for looking into that : )
