Hello
I'm building a new computer with these specs:
Case: Corsair 250d
Motherboard: MSI Computer Corp. Z87I AC Motherboards
Cpu: Intel i5 4570
Gpu:Evga gtx 760 sc
ram: kingston hyperx fury (coloer black)
psu corsiar cx600m
cpu cooler: Noctua NH-L9I
Case fans corsair af120mm quiet edition.
is this a good build and will the cpu fan cooler fit the motherboard with ram installed?
What are you using it for?
Are you overclocking?
How many and what kind of monitors do you have?
Gotta maximum what you're getting for your money.

and what kind of mouse/keyboard/audio do you have?
i'm using this for gaming rendering on blender and coding (modding games)

Something like this is what you are probably going to want if you want 16gb of ram just get 2 of those sticks and for the gpu a 760 or 770 will work good too if you need cuda. That cpu is a i7 without the overclocking so it will work good for what you want.
This is what I would do.
I wanted a small rig as well for gaming, editing video and rendering and built something extremely similar spec wise.
The 1230V3 is a great CPU. Powerful and a good value for both gaming and editing/rendering. Yes it can't OC but it has a good turbo speed and is plenty fast as it is.
You can get a cheaper motherboard as well with that CPU. No need for a Z board. Really the board you specified is still kind of expensive. You could prob find something on the Z87 chipset for cheaper. Z97, while the latest, isn't that much of a jump up to justify the price. Especially if you can find a Z87 on the cheap.
Everything else looks good though. Try and maybe fit in an SSD. It will really help you out in terms of speed.
