It's a lot of gaming performance for the money. If you don't have your heart set on that motherboard or case, you could do it a little cheaper and still have good quality parts.

No need for the unlocked processor and cooler since you won't be overclocking on that B150 motherboard. You could put that money towards an SSD and better quality PSU.
