This is my first PC built from scratch. I'm buying my first PC in nearly a decade, and I wont have the money to do this again for another decade, so I want to get it right. I selected these parts from NEWEGG for the prices listed. I need to be sure everything is compatible and that I'm not lacking parts I will need. I want to stay as close to a grand as possible, and I want my PC to be able to tear Skyrim a new butthole. I also need it to run 3ds max and Photoshop simultaneously without crashing or slowing down.There are cheaper cases, but I LOVE this case. Other than that, I selected what I thought was best, but I'm not entirely sure.
