Hi, what do you guys think of this build?
I'm trying to get my old tower off my desk and I have just enough space on a lower shelf for this case, but I'm a little concerned about overheating. This is for general use and some gaming. It's right at the top of my budget, a bit more than I wanted to pay actually. I don't want to buy a new monitor right now, so I stuck at 1080p max.
I'd appreciate any advice.
