I just ordered all the parts for my 1st PC build, the process was quite overwhelming, I thought AR's had a lot of options! Check out my parts and let me know what you think. Here is the hardware and the case, I have an exsisting 1TB drive that I'm going to use also.
I will mainly use this PC for streaming content to my Roku's around the house, web browsing, and maybe some light photoshop work.

I just looked at your parts list. Rosewill capstone power supplys are top notch and are made by premium power supply builder, Super Flower. I like using Gskill snipers in all my builds too. The cpu's built in graphics is capable of HD graphics, so you dont really need the video card. The computer will do everything you are wanting it to do.

Thanks for the reply, the parts are starting to come in the mail. You can definitely see the quality of the power supply, looks/feels like a well built part. Same with the case, can't wait to get the rest of the parts so I can begin assembly.

I've only taken the side panels off and peeked inside so far. Just got the rest of the parts tonight, I'll report back after I assemble it.
