Same as Dinkle's but just changed the case, if you aren't going with water cooling then the Pro is far too big.
@Weld
Z97 board is a small waste unless OP will benefit from some of the features that it has over B85/H97, but H97 would be a better option as it is cheaper and doesn't support overclocking as the CPU doesn't
PSU is meh too, it's ok if that is all you can afford but it would be preferable to get a different unit as they use cheap internals. I'm waiting for my CX600 to show signs of death atm, been near 2 years...

The cpu come's with a stock cooler but if you were gonna over clock which you can't with this build then you would need one but you should be fine, but if you want you can get a better cpu cooler just to stay on the cooler side

You could get one for aesthetic and noise purposes. Other than that, there would be no point in getting one since you're not overclocking.

CTR wroteZayev wrote CPU cooler won't hurt it, it will keep it quieter and a lot cooler and imo looks a hell of a lot better. I would get this one if I were you.

Ill add it to the list. Do I need thermal paste or whatever its called?
No. It should be pre-applied.
