I already have keyboard/mouse/monitor and will be using cat5e for my connection.

I haven't put together a micro computer before but looking for one on one that'll play SC2 and Heroes of the Storm at around 100 fps on medium/high, no need for a HDD, a 128/256GB SSD will be fine. It's mostly the nVidia card that I'm not sure on and the PSU/case.

Cheaper the better, I was hoping for around 350-450.

Also is there anything I need to be careful of when putting it together? Much and much the same as a monolithic desktop?
 
That Antec case is pretty damn cool, I think I'll go for the second build there. I'm not sure if the Pentium K will be enough, to be honest I hadn't really considered anything other than an i5 but I'll go read up on some reviews/comparisons.

Thanks a bunch!
 
All built and I'm really impressed! I love it!

Just one question though, the mobo has a CPU fan plug (not a plug but you know what I mean) and one chassis fan plug yet the case has an enormous (probably 20cm?) frontal fan with side vents and a rear fan. So two questions. Is there a way I can connect up both fans and which fan is more important to be running?

Aside from that it's not incredibly important as it's running quietly and coolly. But I would like that extra fan on the go!
