Hello!
I am wondering if this is a good build for gaming.

I love RGB, so that explains why i Chose some RGB stuff.
Also, if you have any concerns about the cooler ( happened before when i did this) here's a link justifying that X62 cooler.

Good build but get a better PSU, either this one (below) or the G2 is a excellent model.

Cooler is pricey. Ram is expensive. The 960 evo won't offer any real world benefits (for OS an and a few games) than an mx300.

You don't need pro Windows for gaming. Home is fine and you'll end up not using the pro features.

Overlooked the Win10 Pro, yea I agree just go with the home version.
