So, I am slowly buying pieces for a computer. I haven't bought any yet, but I need help choosing parts for my computer. It will be used mostly for gaming, but this is what I have picked out so far.

BitFenix Colossus Venom Case
ROG Assus VI Hero Motherboard
i3 4th gen processor

I need help with the following
Disc drive( just one)
Hard drives ( would like at least to be a TB)
Power Supply Graphics card.
I only have $350 right now, so if there is something I can skip out on (like GPU maybe) it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for you're time

That motherboard is SUPER overkill. get a $70 motherboard for an i3.

The GPU is what does 80% of the gaming work, so do not cheap out on it because it will GREATLY impact your performance in games.

Get a 550w PSU from XFX for like $50. AMAZING quality for a good price.

That case is a HUGE waste of money. GEt a Corsair 200r or 300r and use the money for better components.
