Hello Tomshardware!

Okay. I have my build set and ready to go. I want to know If this build fits and is Compatible. My main concern is getting it to fit because I'm shoving it into a Mini-ITX case (Listed in my specs). I'm pretty happy with the specs, But If I can do better please tell me. I live in Australia. This is my first build. I'm planning to play Skyrim with a Tonne of mods, Crysis 3, Battlefield 4, COD Ghosts and many other games on Ultra settings. Budget: 1350$ US Dollars or 1450$ Australian Dollars.

Don't get the 850watt PSU this is better and cheaper http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_i... and if you're not getting a Z87 board just get a 4670 non k because B85 board don't overclock good

Thanks! This PSU will fit right? I'll drop the K and get a 4670.

Hmm. The K series is not that much more pricey so I think I will stick with the 4670K, So I can maybe upgrade later like you said. Is there any other advantages for the K CPU's other than overclocking?

This Build fits Great!

Just some little Suggestions

1. If you can then Get an Seasonic of XFX PSU coz their the best PSU atm.

2. Get an SSD and install Windows on it.

3. The Most Important - for OC get a water cooler like this at least:

** and yes it will fit inside your case **

Good luck and enjoy :p

Thanks Charmer. I'm not planning to overclock because my Motherboard is a B85M-ITX, Frosty18 said their bad overclockers, So I'm no longer getting a K series. If i get some money I'll start looking at SSDs. And thank you I will try to look at XFX and Seasonic PSUs. Thanks again everyone!
