New build for gaming tweaked a recommendation a bit myself and came out with this. Any ideas or advice on changes that are either unnecessary or somewhere I might save a couple dollars. I don't plan on overclocking, never have messed with it. Used for games like wow, bf4,lol and so on.. Let me know! Thanks

Ok, think those are two things I tweaked that he had provided. Haha, any reasons as to why? The sad not worth the extra performance per dollar? And the psu I selected was a tad bit more to eliminate some cables, but I just may need to improve some cable management. Just wondering why you'd pick them over, the guy who recommended said both the ones you suggested

i don't think anythings wrong with it.
i only thing i see unnecessary is the 128gb ssd,i am not saying remove the ssd it is just that you won't be needing 12gb on ur ssd,don't store games on your ssd you won't get any difference in performance,just use it as a boot drive and for that you should get a 60gb one.

BEcause the SSD is cheaper and you won't lose too much performance and the PSU because your components don't need that much power. Actually, I'd lower the PSU even further, right down to 500W.

Better quality PSU, the Samsung 840 pro, while the best in its class, is really an enterprise class SSD, the Crucial is almost as good, but considerably cheaper

I have a question as far as the 3.0 USB ports on the case... What is the best way to utilize them on this gigabyte mobo as it doesn't have the 3.0 ports internally
