    Don't need a monitor, OS or mouse/keyboard just the case and stuff in it.
    Gaming is the main use

    I used PCpartpicker since its simpler.

    You can remove the optical drive if you're not the kind of person who still uses cd's.

    Seems good, but for gods sake its a $2000 build, it should have a ssd.

    looks pretty bad to me CalculuS. 1x8gb ram? no SSD? I would also change the cpu cooler.

    Maybe, but that cpu cooler should suffice for some okay overclocking and this way he just saved himself around 900 EU.

    EDIT: Eh what the heck, improved it a little. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/ytqf23

    H50 isn't going to cut it on overclocking. It's an entry level cooler for people running at stock clocks.

    OP also said he does not need an OS.

    The H100i is a much better option.... Of course, we're still completely ignoring the fact that the OP does not want to assemble the system himself and would rather order a "custom built" system from CyberPowerPC....

    OP should find out if there's a local guru around him and maybe see if they would mind building him a custom rig for a pint of thunderbrew.

    ^Sounds like a plan.

    I wouldn't trust CyberPower to build a lego house for me, let alone a computer.

    A Falcon NW rig would be nice, but I'd never pay for one. Ridiculously expensive for what you get.

    There's really no reason for the OP to upgrade if the specs in his sig are accurate.

    If he were within a reasonable distance from me, I'd be willing to assist.

    It's a shame OP had a bad experience with a previous build, sacrificing hardware for lower end components to cover the cost of assembly just doesn't add up.

    He said he messed up the CPU, maybe he bricked it and doesn't want to try again? From reading that thread it just seems like a troubleshooting issue though.
