CPU is locked, you should go a bit cheaper on the motherboard if you aren't overclocking, otherwise it's a waste.

CPU cooler should be a minimum of CM 212 EVO is you're going aftermarket, if you aren't overclocking it is not needed anyway.

16GB RAM, 8 would do but that's not a big deal unless you want to cut on the price. (The speed of it also doesn't matter so 1333Mhz would do too).

I wouldn't touch a Seagate drive with a 10ft barge pole, you should check out WD Blue/Black for storage (or WD Green if you're not bothered about it being fast).

SSD, you should also checkout the Crucial line of SSDs, should be cheaper and they're damn good.

Case gave me cancer but no big deal if it'll be under a desk or some shit.


GPU, 700 series are last gen, you should checkout the 900 series. If you cut down on some parts or gather more funds, you could probably stretch to a 960 which will dominate the 750.


Have you already ordered this?

UPDATE: I see no point in adding LEDs to this case, it's just not going to work. You can spend that money on better hardware instead. Make sure the monitors are at least 1920 x 1080 & I would stick to 60Hz otherwise you're wasting money because a 750 will not run a lot of games at 120 - 144 FPS stable. 24" screen size would be a sweet spot, or higher if you have room.
