Also looking for a fan and temperature controller for the front 5.25 drive bay. Heard nothing but bad reviews on almost all of the nice looking ones on newegg.


Notes- I will be using a 60 inch Aquos TV for the monitor and was wondering if that was going to cause any issues. Just not enough space or places to setup a desk with monitors. Im looking for primarily gaming, and game design such as programming and everyday use. Also would it be worth the little extra for another SSD to put the games i would currently be playing on? Like another 128?

Get an i5 3570k.
If you really want to cut down pointless price get this motherboard

Get this team 8gb 1600 ram
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313266
Get a 7970 if you want a stronger card for the same price, or get a 7950 if you want nearly the same performance for $80 less. It will overclock past the 7950 easily. The 7950 boost is 2% weaker than a 670, and the normal 7970 is 1% weaker than a 680.

I don't see why you would get such an expensive case.
Here is windows 7 64 bit(don't know why you would need both) for $63 less.

That cut about $330 out of your build.

I second the i5-3570k. Expensive motherboards are overrated in my opinion.

ya that case is overkill... also you can find better prices on internal bluray players for cheaper.
