I am planning to complete my first build. I am a uni student and I want to make a computer that is future proof for about 5 years, I couldn't be bothered with overclocking, I multitask a lot and I use programs such as adobe suite and auto-cad and some other engineering programs. I'm not a gamer but I do watch HD movies. I have had my laptop for 5 years and I only have 200gb of storage in use so a large amount of storage is not important to me but speed is. Currently this is my list of components I am choosing;
cpu - intel i7-4770
motherboard - asus h87-pro
ram - crucial BLT2KIT4G3D1608DT1TX0 (2*4gb)
ssd - crucial M500 480GB ssd
power supply - corsair tx-650m
case - termaltake urban s71
os - window 8.1
antistatic band
total cost = $1305 AUD
To save the money at the moment I don't want to get a graphics card or a optical drive. My questions are what is everyone's thoughts on the components I have chosen so far? What are some computer screen recommendations that are around 24-25" and relativity cheap. And also a graphics card for my needs? and finally should I get a mid or full tower if I want the tower to be smaller without losing performance/future proofing?
