My PC Build #1
CPU: Intel Core i5 3470s (1.36v)
Motherboard: MSI H61M-P20
Cooling: NXZT Kraken X62
Memory: 16GB (2x8GB) Corsair Vengeance DDR3-1600MHz

I'm not a heavy user and hence this setup has been doing really well for me for a while. Let me know what you guys think of this. Would welcome any suggestions.

Bonus: Here's a picture of my cable management.

For your overall usability (as stated), I think your specs are very decent and will certainly suffice your needs.

Good choice with the SSD- It makes a significant difference with shutdown & bootup times (OS drive), as well as read/write operations.

The storage devices were a gift from a few friends over the years, so i didn't have to spend on them. My boot time on Windows 10 (desktop logon) is 12 seconds. And closing time is 7 to 11 seconds depending on what is running/closed.

Everything in this setup is a used or unboxed product from trusted sources with the exception of the Kraken, PSU and CPU Case. I spent somewhere close to $600 in making this build.

If you care a bit about aesthetics in your build you can buy a certain colour of extension cable to flourish up your build a bit more, also wheres the picture of the front, can't show only the back right XD

It's certainly a good Investment.

My boot time (cold boot) Is around the same. I cannot function without an SSD, It's well worth the money spent.

Once you are corrupted by the power of SSD, there's no going back.

I'll click some pictures when I get home. This cable management pic is a quick one which was lying on my phone.

Too much money has been spent on my new build, which doesn't even work, to consider buying anything else. I really want an SSD for Windows because gaming is much more convenient on it.

I do however have an M.2 for Linux, and it's very fast.
