Just get the cheapest optical drive you can, you'll really only use it once to install windows and basically never again.

Your motherboard doesn't have built in wifi, but do you NEED wifi? You only need wifi if you're not gonna use a wired ethernet connection, which you should as it's always superior to wifi.

But here's a good wifi card: http://www.flipkart.com/tp-link-tl-wn951n-300-mbps-advanced-wireless-n-pci-adapter-nic/p/itmdhwfm5hw3vzhh?pid=NICDHWFM6TH3XDXG&ref=L%3A-2944563101260495198&srno=b_11

That system should at least be able to do ultra at 30 FPS, higher FPS if you're not such a nazi about ultra though.

You should consider a 120GB SSD just for your OS and critical programs. It will make booting and system operation very snappy indeed.

Otherwise you don't need anything. Optical drive to install games?

Do they still put games on hard media? Who knew

Any old optical drive will do, unless you want one that can read blu ray. There is almost no difference, so pick a known brand for a cheap price.

Also, I hope the ram is 2x4gb sticks, not 1x8gb. That would be nooby ;-)

The SSD is basically like a 10 second quicker boot up and a 2-4 second difference opening a program though.

And there isn't any real world difference between single and dual channel ram.

Good rig - optical drives are pretty limited except for disk program installs these days so get whatever you can find locally cheap. If this is your primary workstation, I would probably recommend looking into an SSD for your OS - no other component is more noticeable in terms of speeding up your day to day computing. That being said, minimal benefit in terms of gaming if that's your objective - it obviously increases load times but that isn't much benefit in multiplayer. I like the Samsung 850 Evo - best bang for your buck and incredibly reliable

Well yeah...add up 10 seconds x 1000 or 10000...

Also, 120GB leaves space for 1 or 2 titles which are load heavy or feature loading screens at the beginning of a level/round. The time saved here is a nice experience.

SSD's generate next to no heat

They have no moving parts and are with it completely silent.

They break less as a result too and are proven to be more reliable over time.

They use less energy than HDD.

I can go on and on why I would recommend one. I NEVER said it is a "must" though
