Simple beauty

This is a no frills build. Had to upgrade on a budget so I crammed as much performance as I could without breaking the bank. This is my first build and I had a lot of fun doing it. Planning on adding liquid cooling once my finances allow. I want an open loop with a 360mm rad in the front and maybe a 240mm rad on top. There isn't a lot of space in this case between the mobo and the top so it will depend on fit. I really don't want to put the fans outside of the case. It would look weird and make cable routing those fans a nightmare. Planning on putting both CPU and GPU in the loop.
