This build is for a friend whose poor laptop cannot handle FFXIV. She wanted something small and stylish, and there aren't many more cases that say both of those but the Bitfenix Prodigy. All parts were bought at the local Memory Express.

The build went fantastically, although there was some ******* around trying to get that giant front fan installed with the drive bay. I ended up just removing it to install.

And post those pictures man, I'm interested to see how good it looks with the hue, as all your other builds are pretty fantastic.

Nice pictures, although you made me realize I am completely unprepared to put my rig together once I get all the parts. Guess I'm going to have to go schmooze over some tech guy for help. I'll make quick work of it.

Nah, build it yourself! The experience is well worth the time it takes to learn all the steps. Linus tech tips has a great youtube video series on pc building.

You can schmooze me over... LOL! Really though, you could do it I'm sure! Just take your time and don't give up if you run into a few little snags here and there. The experience of it alone makes it worth it, and to have your finished product created by yourself... the accomplishment, even better.

Not to sound like a creep or anything, but I looked at your builds and saw some things you could improve. Specifically, you GPU. It's a bit expensive when you can can get a 7950 for cheaper.

Also, you built one for $1500, when you can build a rig 2x as powerful for the same price: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1LTIK

Or, a cheaper alternative: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1LTKH

I don't know if you can tell by now but I like AMD :P If you prefer the parts you have, you could also do this

And you should build, it's so much fun. Multiple times during my build I thought I was going to snap my motherboard from putting too much pressure on, like when I was installing the GPU, but it's all worth the feeling of seeing the computer boot up!

I had to remove the HDD bays to install the fan too.
