Hello,

Looking for a tower only for 1.) gaming performance only (no video editing, etc) and 2.) reliability in parts:

Facts:
-Approximately $1300 (US) budget - Tower only
-No overclocking
-No Windows needed
-Want GTX 980
-Want this case: (unless you have a good reason otherwise) Corsair 350D MicroATX Mid Tower Case
-Would like 250 SSD & 1-2 TB
-Buying at the end of September
-Dell 1920x1200

Looking to play:
-Battlefield 4
-Fallout 4
-Star Wars Battlefront
-New Games

Thank You, I really appreciate it!
