guys please stop fighting I already bought the parts :D

$1,426.70 was the cost without rebates

I decided to not go for a water cooler though since I don't plan to overclock it (atleast not yet) 4.0ghz should be fine for now did buy a really big top fan though that should help keep it cool+ has a back and front fan
also didnt get the gold powersupply I got the bronze I was alittle skeptic about that but the cheaper price seemed neat and since it has a 3 year warrenty it will probabblyyy be fine? maybe?

now the scary part is putting it together im fucking terrified that im going to mess up :(

thank you guys so much for helping out though I really appreciate it <3


btw I know I said I mostly play dota 2 but maybe next year a new game will come out that I really want to play right? that's why im spending so much for a computer it's just safety incase I want to play some newer games when they come out + since I got a warrenty on the gfx card I get farcry 4 for free so might play that :P

Is this what you mean aneas? I didn't really change much from what you guys reccomended besides going with bronze on the psu because the guy said I didn't really need it as long as I don't live in a really old house with dirty electricity or something? lol and since im not going to overclock yet I got a bigass fan instead of a liquid cooler (also got a cd drive cuz I still use cd's sometimes :P )
