These are the parts I was thinking about. I am not planning on overclocking. I will be using a Wireless PCI Adapter

CPU- Intel Core i5-4590
CPU Cooler- Default
Motherboard- ASUS H97 ProGamer ATX or ASRock H97 Pro4 ATX
Case- NZXT Phantom 410 (White) ATX Mid Tower Case (preferably)
Storage- Already Aquired
Video Card-?
OS- Linux
Power Supply-?
Wireless PCI Adapter-?

I'll take any advice I can get and if I left anything out my apoligies. Thanks for the help.

If this is too much, I think your case is overpriced for your budget. You would take a big hit on performance or quality if you cut back anywhere else.

I already have the hardrive, can I upgrade to 32gb of memory or is there something that I'm missing?

Thanks,

Yes you can upgrade to 32GB RAM if you want. It sounds like wasting money though IMO. Do you have a ssd too?

A better option would be spending the HDD money on a better ssd or cpu.
