Hey guys, I'm a first time PC builder and I really need some help finding the right case for this cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835209080. Should I even use that cooler? I'm not very good with this stuff. I have recently watched quite a few PC gamer build guides and learned *some* things, but not a lot. This is what I'm trying to build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/bVGZWZ. Can I have some opinions on this as well? Thanks in advance, and have a great day.

This build is cheaper and far better. AMD has been buried in the processor game. You don't need 16GB RAM and especially the fast ram. It makes virtually no difference, especially with the efficient Intel processors.
