Then why'd you pick the CPU cooler, 2500k, unnecessarily expensive mobo even for overclocking and an overpriced PSU? Even a Seasonic 620W modular PSU would only be $5 more.
I assumed he wouldn't be when I had to explain it to him, but at his price range why not? if he needs to shave $30 off he can drop the Hyper 212 evo, and the PSU wouldn't be modular, mine is.

for cable management it does, modular means that all the cables can come off, meaning the ones you don't need wont sit inside your case taking up space and hindering airflow, they are a little bit more expensive than non-modular though, but I feel it's worth it.

Well I tried watching videos on how to build a computer and I saw that the parts are very delicate so I decided to buy a laptop instead
so can you guys link me to a good computer that can play minecraft on max settings and be able to do the things I listed on the first post of this topic.
Budget is no more than $1000 please send me links.

Unless you are clumsy as a bull and you are in a padded room without any glass or breakable materials in it because you are so clumsy, it isn't that easy to break parts. You should still build it.
But if you MUST get a laptop for some reason (portability, wanting an oven, yadda yadda) get this, don't add anything on it, it is cool the way it is. Also, you'll want one of these in addition to it.
I'm not clumsy but I have no idea on how to build a computer I will more than likely mess up setting it up and when i try to turn the computer on it will break parts if it's not assembled correctly thats what i'm fearing.
And I chose a laptop because they are premade I dont have to worry about anything and their portable.

Just build a desktop. If you read the manuals that come with the motherboard and case, it's very difficult to screw something up so bad that it would break a component. You will save a ton of money building a desktop and when you feel like it's not fast enough anymore you can just upgrade a part or two.

Nobody's perfect, so neither is Hannah Montana Linux, but it's pretty great.

They all suck. They just suck differently. Sort of like prostitutes.
Not really. My little brother has done it, I've done it, we've had many people on these forums do it including an 11 year old. All it is is plugging in cables and screwing some things in, it's not like you need to be an electrician or engineer to build one.

When you first built a computer what did you use to help you do it right?
For OS? I'd get 64-bit, you can't use more than 3.5-4 GB of memory on a 32-bit OS.

I personally didn't, except for having an iPad sitting next to me playing Newegg's tutorial on how to build.
This. It's a good tutorial:
An hour or two for building it, another hour to install windows and drivers and ****.

It's really as easy as people are saying it. I watched the Newegg video and built my first computer on my own just from the video alone.
Generally yes, but the parts won't always be compatible.
