About to order new $1000 build, need look over of parts.
I'm about to order all my parts for my new build, and with the help of a few guys on this forum I've made a few changes, and I'm just wanting someone to look over them and tell me if everything is alright. This build is going to be used only for Gaming and general internet use.

I'd recommend the 4690K, may as well get the newest version.

Other than that minor change, it's a beautiful build. Would be nice if you could squeeze an SSD in there, but I don't see anything I personally would want to cut down on in order to make it happen. At his budget level, I think you've made all the right decisions.

You might be able to do an AMD build, then also have an SSD, but if it were my system, I'd stick with the build you have above.
