New Zealanders on /g/ what is the best list of parts from pbtech that are compatible with each other for a desktop tower at around $600, max of $650. I plan on using my pc for school work, web browsing, and I am going to learn how to use Photoshop and how to code for Unity. I have a PS4 for gaming, so don't need pc for gaming, and I plan to share my monitor between two devices, switching between them.

Thoughts on these parts? I'll look around various online stores and trade me for cheaper prices and similar options, this is a guideline what I'm planning to get. I'll buy a dedicated graphics card later as a price drop is imminent because brand new cards have released.
Move to Australia and enjoy the higher quality of life for the price of only a plane ticket.

Ive thought of moving to Australia in the future, but I've travelled around the country with family, it's absolutely lovely with amazing wildlife, but it's extremely hot, and has too many shitskins to make moving there worthwhile. Mind you the South Island of NZ has far more shitskins than Australia but the bearable climate balances it out. Both places have pros and cons. I have yet to travel around North Island though, but apparently that has lots of shitskins aswell. I plan on moving to Europe when older as even though a shitskin invasion of collosal scale is happening right now, I want to move there as a moral cause to increase white population there, as my ancestors originate in Europe (Britain). Myself being there is the best position to help my race when the bells ring.

AMD dual core
AMD's processors offer very poor performance compaared to Intel's. You'd be much better off getting a dual core i3, it will be many times faster than that AMD (the stock cooler that will come with the i3 will be good enough and you could put the money that you would've spent on the Zalman towards the i3).
The AMD will not be good for games, AMD's single threaded performance is abysmal.

>Memory: Kingston
Never buy Kingston anything, their quality control is garbage. Buy Asus or Crucial RAM.
>Seagate Barracuda
Failure rate for Seagate drives is pretty low, so that's probably fine.
>Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case
Good case.
>Power Supply: Corsair CX 430W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($121.29 @ Ascent Technology)
That's pretty terrible value, shop around and I'm sure you could find a gold rated PSU for that price. And if you're planning on getting a decent graphics card in the future you should look for 500-600 watt.
