I was wondering if you guys could help me out with my dream pc. I don't know a lot about building pc's but I would like to know if all the components will all fit and work together in the case and is all the stuff good for a gaming pc? I don't want stuff to be overkill but I do want it to be really good and a pc that will last a while. You must login or register to view this content.

That keyboards overpriced get a $70 death stalker also u don't need a sound card or a network card move the PSU up to a 650w and dont get that washed out tn panel unless u know you get motion sickness. Get a Much better IPS 1080p monitor and the rest looks good

I removed the sound card but I dunno what a network card is. Is it the network adapters? Also I changed the PSU to a SeaSonic SS-850AM. Is that good enough for gaming?
Edit: What is a washed out tn panel. And I want a 1ms response time monitor or 2ms response time

IPS panel monitors have better color and viewing angles_ and the color on those tn panels are washed out looking and aren't very nice to look at colorwise and any time faster then 6 is fine for gaming

What case would you recommend for my build? A Full Tower ATX or Mid Tower? I can't really decide between them. Help me out please?

There a few factors which determine this such as how much hardware your going to put into your computer. For example if someone was planning on having a custom loop they will likely pick a full tower as it gives more space for the tubing, reservoir and more radiator options as well as more features. It also comes down to what kind of case you like (in terms of looks) and how much your are going to move the computer around, so if you go to lan parties a lot you may look for a Mini ITX case as they offer great portability. If your struggling to look for a case look at NZXT and Corsair as they offer some solid cases.

Hope this was helpful in someway
