Hello everybody. I am building a PC (Who would have guessed right?) I have been doing a lot of research. I have been a PC gamer for a while so i knew a thing or two i was just more out of the loop than anything. I know there isn't a case listed but I already own a Fractal Design R4 (saw it on sale and purchased it up already) I also already have a mouse & monitor.
What i truly want to know overall is for people who have streamed/video edited (because i never have but want to) will this system perform in a way most people would describe as "Above Average"? I will mainly be playing WoW/LoL but I also enjoy First person shooters (CoD/BF/etc..) I will not however stream or record FPS. I also want to know if my choice in PSU is a good one.. that's the only part i have not 100% decided on but i have read good things about the XFX Pro series. My total budget is 1650$ I will be Overclocking which is why i went with the H100i because i know haswell runs at higher temps. So keeping it in a good 85-90 degree area @ 4.5-4.8 isn't easy.
