I need help building my first computer
Hi, everyone. So, I'm planning to build my very first PC, and I need help to make sure if it would be a decent gaming computer. The parts are here : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3QqO7

I'm planning to use it for gaming, schoolwork, etc.

Any kind of help would be much appreciated.

And can you guys suggest a couple of other stuff I need like sound cards and stuff like that?

Thanks

stock cpu now come with a cooler that be fine till you have more money. the blue ray player only needed for burning large data disks or playing bluy ray movies on your pc. a standard 20.00 dvd drive is needed for the os and standard games.

Get rid of the Blu-Ray drive and the Cooler Master aftermarket cooler.

new motherboards have built in sound card. if your pc not near a ethernet port or cable you may need a usb wifi dongle to get onto the internet. drop the 640 gpu and pick up the newer 750ti it a better card for the money. if not pick up a 650ti or 7850 or amd replacment. r270/r270x.
