good build. maybe a cheaper cpu cooler if not overclocking like the Xigmatek Dark Knight, and for that money get a i5 4440

Better board, better case, very good good budget CPU cooler, lower cost.

what does it mean update bios is that hard and thanks for the tips

TomThePotato · Sep 26, 2014

Here's an optional Intel built that'll have better performance in gaming, but if he's video editing, the 8320 would be better.

For white cases, look into fractal's cases. They're silent.

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/fractal-design-case-fdcadefr4wh

NZXT's cases are fine too.

CammyD123 · Sep 27, 2014

is that a good mobo

TomThePotato · Sep 27, 2014

Well, their Z97 fatality boards are decent, Soo.. Assuming it's the same for their H97 boards. (Have no experience from asrock mobos, but from what I've seen, they're fine)

CammyD123 · Sep 28, 2014

ok thanks

CammyD123 · Sep 28, 2014

Evga messed up on the the cooling, so it's a few degrees hotter than others. Z97 allows you to overclock the K series, but the build has a non overclocking processor.

CammyD123 · Sep 28, 2014

ok so what gtx 970 do you recommend in the build and thanks for telling me about the mobo i will remember that in the future

Cheers

TomThePotato · Sep 28, 2014

Msi's version

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-gtx970gaming4g

or.. Asus's Strix Version

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-strixgtx970dc2oc4gd5

EDIT: Gigabyte's version is too big for your case

TomThePotato · Sep 28, 2014

Try going for a 200r since it's more roomy, but it's a black case.

CammyD123 · Sep 28, 2014

TomThePotato · Sep 28, 2014

It looks fine, if you want it to be closer to the 700 mark, you can go with this psu. It's not modular, but it can handle the 970.
