Hey Guys/girls,

I'm new to this PC gaming and rig building so I was looking for a quick hand in guiding me to what else i may need. So far I have (or ordered) the following:

- ASUS MAXIMUS VII HERO ATX DDR3 2600 LGA 1150
- Sapphire R9 290x
- Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB Kit (2x4GB) 2400MHz DDR3
- i7 4790K

= I now need cooling which I was thinking of the Noctua d14?
= Case..I have no idea whatsoever...?
= PSU, I have a Thermaltake Smart M 850w, 80 plus Bronze but not sure if it is stable enough?

Thanks guys,

Hey Marc,

The parts that you have ordered so far make it seem like the PC you are building is high end, so I chose more higher end parts for you. If you don't already have one, you will also need a hard drive. I recommend the WD Caviar Blue 1TB drive. For cooling, go with the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo. It is a great cooler for any CPU. A case suitable for a build like yours would be the Corsair 200R. I myself have owned this case in the past and it does more than get the job done. Your power supply will not only support your build, but it will allow room for upgrades to your computer in the future if you want. Otherwise, the build looks cool to me!

If you have anymore questions feel free to PM me.
