Not really up-to-date on PC Hardware as I've been busy with school. I've seen some really good things above Ryzen, but I don't know if at this price point it is worth it. Intel or AMD to me/him doesn't matter either way.
He would also like to have Dual monitor hooked up (Game on one monitor and web browser open on the other).

NCIX only

I like it.

If you buy that case, it doesn't have a optical drive bay, just so you know.
I just built mine in it, today.
But made that mistake.

Thanks, that's good to know. Not even sure if I'm going to use that case. Case doesn't really matter that much anyways, so might buy something cheaper. As long as it's half-decent lol.

Dvdrom is dead. I haven't had use for one is years.

Agreed, I never really use it. But I don't mind spending the $20 to have it as an option.
I had just overlooked it on that case, and didn't want him to make the same mistake. Since I had to RMA it back to newegg.
Besides that I like that case a lot.

dont buy from direct canada... took me 3 week to receive my SSD and they have the worst customer service

?
just get an external dvd drive

he lives in vancouver, so he won't have that problem. Plus, he only wants to purchase at ncix.
Although mem express/direct canada are cheaper most of the time and ncix can be anal about price matching.
