Hi! So i am looking to build a gaming desktop for the first time... at first i was going to just order a prebuilt PC off of amazon but i thought ehh.. maybe i should do some research before investing this much money into something.. so here i am.
I know a few things i want, i know i want an intel processor either i3 or i5, i know that i would like
a superior motherboard for what i am putting on to it to allow for future upgrading, and i know i want to have good enough parts when the pc first arrives for me to play games like sc2, h1z1 cs:go, etc on high quality,
What i am ok with is to run a game on high or medium, even, until i can upgrade in a month or so and then upgrade again, i want a solid foundation that i will be able to build on.
I have a few ideas so far, i read up on this "system builder marathon 2015" http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/build-budget-gaming-pc,4065.html and read through alot
of the comments about it. i arrived at one post which had a part list and i thought this might actually be perfect.

i am probably going to buy whats on that part list and go with that, it fits my budget and seems to fit what i am looking for, i am posting here to see if anyone (who actually knows what they are talking about (unlike me)) could share some wisdom as to why or why not that would be a good idea. One concern i have is no HDD, what if i need to install windows!
random questions i have
1. how does windows 10 preview work?
2. i need to buy a monitor also(not worried about it in the budget), any suggestions?
the pc on amazon i considered. http://www.amazon.com/CybertronPC-Borg-709-GMBG70934GN-Desktop-Green/dp/B00NC06RKC/ref=dp_ob_title_ce
Thanks for reading! any and all input appreciated.
