Hello @goatman

What kind of games are you playing and at what resolution?  Do you have plans for content creation or streaming?

To the actual build, you do not need to get your own CPU Cooler as your Processor will come with one already.  If you have plans for overclocking, I recommend getting another cooler but if not, you can use the stock cooler fine.  You also cannot fit an Internal Blu-Ray or DVD Drive as your case doesn't support it.  Lastly, the GPU can wait for the 3000 Series of GPUs to release as the price for most GPUs are likely to drop when they release.
