Hey peeps,

After a lot of research I have put together a list of parts I would like to build for my pc. This is my first time building a pc and I would just like opinions and suggestions.

My pc parts list: http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/8zf9ZL

I still need to decide what monitor to get so I am open to suggestions.

Thanks heaps :)
 
CPU COOLER - Don't forget one.
MEM - The low latency DDR3-1866 CL9 modules below are priced nicely today and are cheaper.
SSD - Yu would be doing yourself a favor by going with a 250GB SSD instead of the small 120GB. It will fill up quickly...
CASE - Changed to a mid tower. The full tower is huge..
PSU - Fine and all, but there are better units out there. Look toward XFX or Seasonic.
MONITOR - Look for an LED display with an IPS panel. ...use the filters on the left side of PCPartPicker.
