It's only a couple dollars more to go with twice as much ram in a better brand and 1600mhz.

It depends on your resolution for high, but Ultra will be out of the question. The second graph on this page is Arma 3 at 1920x1080 only on high. The GTX660 which is one notch above your 750ti shows an average of 32 fps which might be playable depending on the minimums, but probably not.

I don't really know the specifics of new AMD processors to be able to recommend any type of CPU/MB, I stopped using AMD products a couple years ago. I will say that unless you're comfortable overclocking every AMD CPU made is going to perform worse on games than any 1155 or 1150 i5 or i7 is.

Your power supply should be fine with a GTX660, I should have noticed that to begin with. The GTX660 is about 15% faster than the 750ti. This looks like a pretty great price.

The 1st is the regular card, the 2nd is the overclocked version, and the 3rd is overclocked even more and overclocked on the ram, so since the prices are so close I would go with the 3rd one. Those prices are really high though, where do you live? If the GTX660 is more than $50 above the price of the 750ti then it probably isn't worth it for a 15% increase. The one I linked was only £103.38 with free shipping.

It looks like there is an optional bracket to hold more hard drives. They're just saying that you may need to remove the bottom bracket to fit the card, but with only one card you shouldn't, even if you get that bracket or model. Look at these two picks. That bracket in the bottom one is what they're talking about. The one you linked me is the top one according to the pictures.

No, look at the pictures again. One of the models has a side piece close to where the door goes that lets you mount harddrives down at the bottom. Personally I'd just get the other one because it looks cleaner. The picture on "overclockers.uk" in your pcpartpicker shows the top one without the bracket. The other two sites don't have pictures where you can tell which one it is.

so that case is perfectly fine for the build? All i need to do is remove the 2 little door covers (what are made to come off) right?

Yeah, if they're talking about the bracket I was showing you I don't think that one comes with it. If they're talking about the covers on the back and the bracket that holds them in place I didn't even think about that and they're retarded for even putting that comment in there. Of course you would have to remove those covers.

I you were putting together a dual core pentium with a $80 GPU or an A8 or A10 APU I would say yes, but I believe your setup will be fast enough it will use more than 4GB of system ram on some games. With my setup in my signature I see 3.8-4.2GB of system ram usage on Skyrim with just the official HD mod, 3.8GB on Bioshock Infinite, over 5GB usage on the Witcher 2 with HD mods, and 4.5GB on Dishonored. Arma and BF4 are likely to use more than those.
There's also the possibility that if you buy one 4GB stick and then try to buy another later on that they may not work in dual channel together. It may not be still available to get a matching one or even if it claims to be the same, it may not be. I had an issue 4 or 5 years ago where I ordered one, then ordered another stick and the 2nd stick was claimed to be the same, but it had a different brand of chips on it and they refused to work in dual channel together.

Ok and the build what im making uses 2x4gb ram sticks? so your saying they wont work?
also this guy said this to me on another forum: http://gyazo.com/01db8e56dbd36239958e35a07ba12d24
so that graphics card wont work in my case? just like the notes said?

Yes, the 2x4GB will work. I was saying that if you bought only 1, later on you might not be able to get a 2nd that would work in dual channel with your 1st one. If you buy them together as a matched set they will for sure work.
The case holds graphics cards up to 300mm. At about 8:00 you can actually see him measure it. The other model is the one with the wierd brackets that might be in the way, not the one you picked.
