Lmk whatcha guys think.

If I get back from Alaska I might spend 1300$ and save up but for now this is what I have. I think it would be a good building block for now.

What is this computer going to be used for?

League of Legends, Diablo II, Diablo III and possibly CSGO, I never played it but everyone heard it was fun so I am going to give it a try.

Later on I will get a graphics card and run a dual monitor set up with a Corsair k70 keyboard and logitech proteus g502 mouse or something for gaming.

But you can't use it for gaming without a grafics card. So what's the point on getting half a gaming computer?

You could simply buy a cheaper main board and a non-k stock cooling CPU and get a 750ti grafics card. Then you can use the computer at least and upgrade the grafics card later.

solid start, would upgrade to 3000 mhz ram, it's like a $10 difference
prolly get a 750w evga psu (g2 series)

imo, would be worth downgrading your case and upgrading it at a later time

Lol'd when I saw 980 GTX thrown in xD but you need a graphics card bro.

What's so funny about that? Is it to much power for that build?

I think I'll get a SSD later on and a GFX card.

Lol anyone here seen what the igpu is capable of?

Think he is kinda making good decision considering those games

And his later upgrade

i got a i5 6600 and i know that my igpu gets me about 10fps in 1080p Starcraft II LotV. Dont think that Diablo III will run much better. (But not sure as i dont have that game) The other 3 games are easy and can be played on a toaster.

I will most likely get a SSD, gpu. And convert to liquid cooling
