Below is what I'm planning to buy soon

CPU+Mobo: MSI B85M-G43 + i5 4460 $377
RAM: G.SKILL PC 12800/1600MHZ DDR3 CL11 VALUE RAM $97
GPU: MSI GTX 970 4GB Gaming O.C $579
SSD: CRUCIAL MX100 128GB SATA3 SSD 2.5"$109
HDD: WESTERN.D 1TB BLUE 64MB SATA3 3YRS $75
PSU: SF HX 600w GOLD $109 (want to get 650leadex but not sure if have stock)
Case: FRACTAL DESIGN R5 BLACK 159
WLAN: ASUS PCE-N15 CARD $59
OS: WINDOWS 7 HOME PREM 32/64BIT OEM $130

Total 1694 (PC themes)

I have a few questions:
1. I game at 1920x1080, looking to be able to games (Payday 2, Far Cry 3/4, BF 3/4 and upcoming triple A titles) at high settings don't really mind low aa, prefer higher fps. Should I get 290x Lightning instead? I'm concerned about the noise mostly as case will be next to me.

2. How do I check the compatibility of wireless card with my home internet?

3. Is 128GB ssd enough for OS and a few games?


Thanks in advance :)

Don't get an OC edition of the 970, some games screw up
