what am i doing wrong? because i'm fairly certain something is wrong.
current cost is: $1531.14
budget is $2000
>>
I would prefer a little more power, maybe 600-650W, if not 700. With at least a Bronze rating.
I would need a mechanical drive for data.

thx, super new at this, any advice would help

1. Be sure your cooling system and case is compatible in size and fan slot
2. I suggest using SSD + HDD. ssd for OS, HDD for data
3. Use at least tier 1 or 2 power supply (find at the internet for tier list)
4. For a 2k budget, you only use 1.5k . kinda weird for me

other than that, its all good

thx again. with my budget, what would you increase? specifically, besides power supply and adding an hdd

cooling system showed as compatible in http://pcpartpicker.com/list/
how do i check this?
case is micro-AXT with multiple 120mm fans
cooler radiator is 240 mm, does that make it incompadible?
