Hey everyone, I am having trouble picking out parts for my computer. So far, I picked out the GeForce GTX 760 for my video card because I have been told that is one of top video cards today. Now, I am having trouble with picking out the rest of the parts that go into the computer. I do not need peripherals and operating system.
So any suggestions on:
Motherboard
Memory
Processor
SSD
CPU Cooling
Case
Power Supply


Thanks for help & suggestions

Hey guys, thanks for your help so far. I did some research for the CPU and discovered that the 'k' for the intel processors represents something like overclocking? I dont think that is necessary and want to go with a non 'k' CPU because it is slightly cheaper. That being said, will it go with a 'z' motherboard series? Thank you in advance.
