So,at the end of the summer i will order a new PC,I need some help for some components.
I was thinking at i5-4690K for future OC.
The EVGA GTX 770 is nice,2 gb though,because there is 1 or 2 fps difference..
One Samsung EVO SSD for fast storage with 120 gb capacity and one WD HDD WITH 1TB.
8 GB Kingston HyperX Beast at 1600 MHz is enough for starting (16,in the future maybe).
At the motherboard I am not sure..i would go with the Z87-K but maybe there something newer in the same price range.
For the Case I was thinking at the Raidmax Viper GX but i need you guys to tell me if they fit in.
The monitor is 24 inch 3D LG with 60Hz.
I am all ears for your comments.Thanks.

Yea..maybe,but i want just the Case,not integrated PSU.

 
Personally I do not like that case at all. It looks ridiculous, and has poor options for the price.

The cable management is not great.
The HDD bays are not removable
No 140mm fan mounts anywhere. All 120s
overall build/ material quality is shoddy

For $80 you can get a much better equipped case.

Then give me an example,please.

 
Corsair 300r: ALL fan mounts (2xfront, 2xtop, 1xrear) support 120mm and 140mm fans. MUCH better build/ material quality.
Corsair 400r: Same, with MUCH better cable management.
Coolermaster HAF 912: MUCH better cooling options for larger fans and MUCH more space. Again better build quality.
NZXT Phantom 240 (I think you will like this one most): Looks interesting, top dual 140mm fan support, better cable management, removable HDD bays, AMAZING quality. I personally REALLY like this case and strongly recommend it.

Just to name a few.

I like the Phantom. So the other components are all good?
