I went with a slightly better graphic card to allow you to run multiple monitors without issue. this is cheaper than the reference pc and still has room for upgrade. what do you think? anything you want more or or don't like?

not only will this crush anything you throw at it it will be good for a vry long time. i tried to spend the money where it really matters and save where it doesnt. I hope it meets your standards :p Plus with the extra money left over you can get multiple monitors or get a nice keyboard/mouse. you will want to get a after market CPU cooler to im just not sure what in will fit in there but id recommend a noctura. They have several low profile CPU coolers and they are the best. hope that helps
 


780ti for 1080p? and non modular PSU with (Extremely small) MINI-ITX case? WHY?

oh you are right you should defiantly get a modular PSU. and the 780ti to run multiple monitors. you cant runseveral 1440ps on a single card, not in that price range.

you read the spec of each part. generally it enough to tell you if something will fit. CPU heat sinks can be tricky sometimes. I generally look up other builds using similar parts and see what other people made work. Quite often the path has been beaten down for you already so just look up and see where others walked, yah dig :p
