I am aiming to build this:
http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/2K15E
However, since it is my first ever build, I am unsure how each part will work with each other. Here is what I'm planning to do with my rig:
-Gaming (I want to be able to run every game on the market at 1080p with Ultra settings);
-Recording gameplay and some live streaming:
-Video editing (just for my YouTube channel, not for movie production or anything like that).
Also, here are some characteristics I'd like the rig to have:
-I want it to be quiet (it doesn't need to be DEAD quiet, but to a level where it doesn't bother me and where my microphone, which sits on my desk, doesn't pick up the sound the computer makes);
-I want to be able to overclock the CPU.
Finally, I have 2 questions:
-I only chose this Intel Wi-Fi adapter because it supports 802.11n and it uses the PCI Express interface. Why are there other more expensive adapters? What difference do they make? Should I go for a different adapter?
-Should I buy the Corsair Obsidian 750D or the Fractal Design Define R4? The reason I picked the latter in my parts list is because it is quieter. However, the 750D comes packed with more features, has better air flow, offers more space and looks better in my eyes. If the difference in noise is small, I think the 750D will be my choice.
-Is the monitor I picked good for gaming? If there is another one that is $200 or cheaper that would like to suggest, please do.
If I forgot to add anything, I will mention it.
Thank you.
