Your opinions?
looks like shit

Why would you say that to yourself? Its not nice
>>51877665
There are three (now four) posters. No samefagging here.

Get a Samsung SSD. Microcenter has 240GB for 65 bucks if memory serves. And get yourself a Hitachi drive.
Hijacking this thread for my stupid question: What's important in a motherboard? Logicalincrements recommends a ~130€ motherboard for the tier I'm looking at while I found ~60€ mobos that have everything I could need and I'm wondering why.
Looks pretty good. Change the 212 to a cryorig h7. Get a 250g evo. Get a less poorfag case. If you're spending $100 on the psu anyway get http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-rm1000 so you crossfire.

>What's important
depends on needs
shit that actually matters is like pcie lane number/speed, m.2 gen3, usb 3/0 and 3.1 type 2, audio chip/on board amp/isolation, raid support, power phases.
Thanks to both of you.

Microcenter doesn't exist in Miami, FL.
Hitachi drives are good yes, but I cant seem to find them easily enough, plus WD isn't terrible.

How is this Kingston SSD? I just don't wanna spend $70+ on EVO. If it's my best option then ill get it. I also think the 1000W is good for only a few more shekels, same with the cooler.

This anon. Also the more expensive motherboards usually overclock way better, with things like OC Genie 4, and are just overall higher quality. (Better VRMs and etc)

/g doesn't care for Kingston because of

Don't torture yourself; go full tower.
>>51878183
Damn
>>51878192
Why?
>>51878192
this is bullshit.
5.25" bays are already worthless thanks to the ongoing death of optical media.
You don't need 6 bays.
You don't need 3.
You don't even need 1.
3.5" bays for workstations are of questionable worth now too.
Even normies are getting NAS appliances now, and having more than 1 local HDD for shit you don't care about plus a SSD for programs is dubious.
Anyone who needs a lot of storage should put it on RAID on a server that won't hard crash when your browser or gaymen triggers a GPU driver bug, so shoving half a dozen disks on a workstation is retarded.
I'm not saying to go for the mini-ITX may-may with price premium, but even a mini-tower is overkill space-wise for a build like OP's.
>>5187920>>51879201
Better airflow.
Easier to work with.
>>51879355
Future expansion possibilities aside it's just nice elbow room.
>>51881112
Trueeeeeee

>>51881155
elbow room is nice for the one hour it takes to build a PC and whenever you open it up every 2 years to upgrade your GPU or whatever.
the rest of the time, it's just wasted space.
not usually a big deal, but when you start having 2 or more mini-towers sitting around your desk it starts getting annoying.
> currently have 1 windows and 2 linux mini-towers, strongly considering going uATX for next windows box and just running all linux stuff over VNC/RFB from another room. all storage already on a NAS by my router anyway
