I want to play online games like minecraft halo call of duty stuff like that

do I need a wired network adaptor or an ethernet cable to play online

is ethernet not internet i dont understand what is the difference
please help

and also did i miss anything on my build?

there is a ethernet connector on your motherboard, therefore you will be able to connect to the internet via ethernet connector. (ethernet is the internet cable)

As said elsewhere....change that PSU.

The case is Micro-ATX and your mobo is full size ATX. That will not fit!

Lets back up a little, since you are coming from the console world:

Budget?
Where are you buying from?
Overall use?

Basically, start here:
*How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice*

...instead of just winging it for a first build.

your motherboard is an atx and your tower is a mini atx tower it will not fit
you have no cpu cooler
the 750 ti is way better than 250x
the power supple is much more reliable then urs
its 30 dollars extra for a more reliable build
you dont need 1 extra case fan

sanhuy :

thanks for the build but does it matter that the motherboard has no 3.0 port?

sanhuy · Jul 13, 2014

CinTrix :

oh im sorry i didnt realize that my case did not have front 3.0 ports. the mobo has 3.0 ports but the front panel in the case does not.
use this case instead http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-case-200r

CinTrix · Jul 13, 2014

sanhuy :
