I made a thread a while back about a build I was planning but I've had a change of heart and decided to go down a different path. I chose mini ITX due to the fact I need to be able to transport the rig to and from Uni without too much hassle. I just need help, as this is my first build and I don't want to make any rookie errors.
The specs
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Asus Z97I-PLUS Mini ITX LGA1150 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LP 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB Superclocked ACX 2.0 Video Card
Case: BitFenix Prodigy (White) Mini ITX Tower Case
Power Supply: Antec TruePower Classic 550W 80+ Gold Certified ATX Power Supply
Case Fan: BitFenix Spectre 97.8 CFM 230mm Fan
The reason I didn't go for 2x4GB RAM sticks is because I want to upgrade to 16GB when it becomes relevant to me, and it just makes more sense to add another stick rather than replacing two.
So do these parts work well together/fit in the case? Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.
