ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Building a mATX gaming rig, needs to play new games at max settings or very close to it. form factor is necessary since i carry from school to home pretty often
This is the setup i have so far, unsure of the mobo and ram though. How is this build looking so far? Im getting the 4770 because I hope to get a second one if necessary after the school semester starts but i probably wont need another one. The case is pretty ideal for me, i like how its small but im worried about heat, should i buy fans? will it all fit? Also plan to oc the cpu but only alittle and what is capable with stock cooling
