Hello!
I'm a longtime gamer but have made do with prebuilt Dells and HPs and the like until now. i'm looking to build my own "future proof" system to last me for the next 4 or so years. I'm not interested in dual GPUs or overclocking. I don't play FPS so I don't believe I will need crazy high fps but I still would like to enjoy max settings on games (at least for a while.)
Approximate Purchase Date: ASAP
Budget Range: 1200 Total (Pref Monitor Incld.)
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Amazon, Newegg
Location: US, Louisiana
Parts Preferences: I want an Intel/Nvidia setup.
So This is what I have so far--Prices are all from Amazon(free shipping) but I'm willing to look at deals on other sites.
Intel Core i7-4770 Quad-Core Desktop Processor 3.4 GHZ LGA 1150 8 MB Cache BX80646I74770 - Intel

Asus 24x DVD-RW Serial-ATA Internal OEM Optical Drive DRW-24B1ST (Black) - Asus

Corsair Builder Series CX 600 Watt ATX/EPS 80 PLUS (CX600) - Corsair
$65.03
So what would be a good case? Also I need a new monitor--I'm thinking 1900x1080p--what's out there?
I don't need to buy the OS. Since I won't be overlocking, will I need additional fans/cooling systems etc?
Thanks for the look over!
