Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: this month

Budget Range: 1650 dollar / 1300 euros

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, watching movies, some school stuff, but mostly gaming =p

Are you buying a monitor: No

Do you need to buy OS: No

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I use a dutch website: Azerty.nl, thats from where ill be ordering.

Location: The Netherlands, the parts will be shipped to my home, and I will be building the pc myself.

Parts Preferences: Intel and Nvidia

Overclocking: Maybe, the cpu atleast, I dont have any plans for the gpu

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe, later when I want to get more performance out of my system.

Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080

Additional Comments: I will be moving my system almost every weekend, so ill need a case with a handle that isnt too big, I chose the CM storm scout 2 advanced because I like the way it looks, and reviews on the strength of the handle and overall case are pretty good.

And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Ive been using a laptop for years now, and its time for me to go desktop =)

Heres a Pcpartpicker list of the components I put together:

Please give me some feedback/advice on anything, im very new to this so I dont know if theres anything wrong with this build.

I would like to use this system for the next three or so years.. =)

Thanks in advance!

It looks like a good build to me. I would like to point out that your price in that list (from my viewpoint) is based on listings from Microcenter, who don't do shipping. In store collection only. Lowered prices on those items may or may not go up depending on where you are relegated to finding them, since I do not believe there is a Microcenter in the Netherlands.
