I be playing heavy cpu games like planetside 2, dayz, arma 3, starcraft 2 etc with some gpu intensive games like bf3, bf4 at 1080p. Should i get a usb wireless network or a pci? i be streaming downloading and playing games.


I will be plan on OCing the gpu and the cpu The cpu to 4.0ghz- 4.5ghz

suggestions are welcomed

Also this is my first build. Is it easy to build a computer I am scared that I am going to screw up and waste 1.2k

Any tips or tricks when making ur own computer and stuff I should worried about?

no more then 1250$

Oh ok. This is going to be my first build and I am kinda scared Of ESD, Putting the motherboard in the case, Hooking the power supply to the motherboard CPU etc kinda feels tricky. Also cable management looks tricky as well.:/

Any tips and what was the hardest part of building ur computer?
