Monitor:
-Currently: 1920x1080 60Hz, will be buying an ASUS Swift (2560x1440 144Hz) once they come back in stock.

Main gripes:
- The case? This one's kind of up for grabs at the moment, but I do want a mid tower.
- CPU Cooler, I was stuck between the H100i and the Phanteks PH-TC14PE. Somewhat worried about clearance and the H100i has a better fit with the airflow I'm going for. (Sorry, I can't stand to look at Noctua parts.)
Other:
- Storage, 512GB SSD is a lot, yes, I know. I'd also considered grabbing 2x1TB HDDs in raid 1.
- Price, obviously I'd like to get the price down as much as possible, but this is currently within budget.
