I have built/upgrade a lot of computers. the week before Halloween my computer broke its completely gone. (really old computer could repair it but decided to scrap it)

I should have all these parts by the end of the month:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

This is a budget build but have made it so it can be upgraded its also a ITX build

Motherboard (GA-Z97N-Gaming 5) I wanted a board with the wifi built into it i may go for another Z97 board also so that next year when i7 broadwell comes out I can easily put it in this board. I will be able to overclock the Intel G3258 so easily to like 4.4ghz - 4.6 ghz on this board.

4Gb ram 1333mhz I will stick another one in once I have gathered all the parts reason for 1333mhz. I'm on budget and also Intel G3258 doesn't supports 1600mhz or more. Ideally Want to stick two sticks of 8gb of ram

only 120gb SSD I got like literally so many external hard drives around the house so I just need a hard drive for the OS.

GPU - I will stick a 2nd hand nvidia 660ti in this build

Other things to add on a later date
- Bitfenix spectre 230mm Red Led Fan
- Corsair Air Series AF140 Red CFM 140mm
- h100i or h60
- Swap the PSU nothing is wrong with this one but would be nice (could get some custom cables)
- Bigger Internal SSD for games
- GPU upgrade 980 or 970 but that will be after upgrading the CPU
- Wireless controller =P
