Hey there friends! I just came by to ask you a really important question: Is my build good? I'm a bit affraid that cooling isn't enough...

IMPORTANT - I don' want to OverClock and gaming will be my first concern of the three.

That said here's the build:

CPU: INTEL CORE i5 4670 (3.4GHZ)
GPU: ASUS GTX770 DC2 OC 2GB DDR5
Motherboard: ASUS H87M-PRO
Memory: GSKILL KIT 4GB DDR3 1333MHZ RIPJAW (CL9 - 1.5V) X 2 (8GB)
Case: ZALMAN Z3 PLUS
Drive: ASUS DVD±R 24X DRW-24F1ST BLACK BULK (SATA)
HDD: SEAGATE 1TB SATA III 64MB
PSU: XFX PRO 650W CORE EDITION
Cooler: COOLERMASTER HYPER 212 EVO
OS: MicroSoft WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM SP1 64-BIT

As I mentioned my main doubts are about the Cooler and the case (I want it to be cool, functional and reasonably priced).

Thanks in advance for all the help!

Edit: Is there a good motherboard at the same price point but with wi-fi?

1600mhz is pretty much the standard for gaming 1333 mhz would probably bee fine but its like the same price. It will be a bit faster will you tell the difference probably not but might as well go faster since youe not paying much more. If you can find ram thats cheaper go with that but ripjaws is usually the cheapest. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/4Zso

Cooling should be fine especially with the cpu cooler the case has 4 fans so you should be good to go. If youre going to be doing a lot of video editing you may consider getting an i7 they are much better with hyper threading. Also you may want to get 1600mhz ram it is probably the same price.

I know 1600 MHZ are faster, but is the difference that great? Even so, should I go for the 1600MHZ version of the ripjaws or another brand?

God damn it, in that thread people are quite split apart :p... At least I know it comes with 4 fans.... not really great ones, but them plus my own cooler should do the trick. I'm going to search a little bit more thoroughly though!

Thanks for the help :)!

Nice! I'm also going to take a more thorough look into RAM. It was friend's advice to go with Ripjaws 1333Mhz version.

Thanks for the help!
