Tried that and no luck still, getting Magician is not properly communicating with samsung ssd error, after doing some more googling (looking past the three or four pages) i found some post on overclock.net (http://www.overclock.net/t/1484938/samsung-ssd-840-pro-error-cannot-communicate) basically showing that magician doesn't play well with raid even though the SSD is not part of it.  Oh well just wanted to try out Rapid mode but can live with out.  Thanks Smile for trying to help me out but im gona call it some what problem solved.

My worst one to date? I would have to say 6 months ago when i got a H60 hydro for cheap as a open box at a local best buy and when i was installing it in my brother's PC i over did it on the cleaner and got some paste run off down the side of the CPU so i removed his i5 2500k to clean off what dripped to the side, then when re-installing i butterfinger'd it a inch from the cpu socket crushing/breaking about 10 of the cpu socket pins  :o

Thank you XDLGx and Godlygamer23 for trying help, people like you is what makes this forums awesome.  I found the solution on a Steam post seems Windows Update KB2670838 was the problem, once i uninstalled it i have no problem at all running any DX10 game and big relief that my new $450 gpu is perfectly fine i just wanted to make sure before ordering the water block for it :D ty again. 

Analog audio vs digital audio

I will go for GTX 760s for this one.

760's. If you're going to be water-cooling, its going to take advantage of GPU boost 2.0 and its also a more recent card, so you get the new features. Also the price is substantially cheaper. 

Definitively go for the 760s , since they are pretty much 660 TIs the scaling on them will be INSANE and water cooled with gpu boost 2.0 will just put two 670s to shame

I would just get the 760 its such a small difference in performance. 

personally i would get the 760's especially since your watercooling the 760 with gpu boost 2 is likely to just eat the 670 for a fraction of the cost

Question 1 = yes. Question 2 + yes. Question 3 = no. However the free standing pumps can be silenced with either high density foam or silicone underneath it while the 3.5 inch res/pump combos from xspc and others are almost impossible to silence so you will need to look for a quiet one.

Yes its enough. Add as many rads as you can for quieter fans. But if that's all you can fit you will be fine. Yes, the D5 is a notoriously underestimated pump, it is very strong. No, the reservoir is literally a basin of water  which is there so your pump has a constant unconditional supply of water. The amount in the basin makes no difference as long as it is full at all times while the pump is running. If there is a res made for a pump you are basically guaranteed it will work.

Looking pretty decent. I would go with WD Black Drives 1TB Model in raid 0.  Mobo and CPU seem good. along with the SSD. For video card I if you are going to multiple monitor setup go with the 4gb GTX 670 if single monitor go with dual 2gb cause you only get 2gb of ram in SLI with those card. As for the power supply you do not need that much power for one video card. For cooling I would go with an H110.  Hope it turns out for the best. :-)

Hello and welcome to the forum!
 
I would first like to say that I like the parts that you have currently selected. They are great parts and are a good start to a great gaming build.
For your gpu i would HIGHLY recommend going with a configuration that has more that 2gb vram. Even though the configuration overall would have 4gb vram, each card has to load the same textures, so you effectively have 2gb vram. I currently own 2 gtx 670 2gb and have noticed that the performance really suffers in surround with only 2gb vram. If you want an enjoyable experience with surround I would recommend going with the 4 gb cards; however, you could also look into AMD cards if you aren't comfortable with the price of the 4gb card. Both the 7950 and 7970 have 3gb vram, which is great for an eyefinity (surround) configuration. They also include Bioshock and Crysis 3, 2 awesome games. So for your GPU I would highly reccomend to go with a configuration that has more than 2 gb per gpu for surround.
As far as cooling goes I would recommend the Swiftech H220. It is an all in one cpu cooler that Linus has shown to be the best on the market. It is also expandable, unlike the H100i, so you can turn it into a full liquid cooling loop. The NZXT Switch 810 is an excellent case for liquid cooling so you may be interested in doing this in the future.
 
Hopefully these recommendations are helpful and I am interested to see you post this in the build logs section of the forum :)

I am not sure about Battle field never played it, as far as your build looks like a all around good imo budget gaming computer.
if i changed anything about it i would either change the gpu to a 6670 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150587  to set up Dual Graphics "crossfire" with your APU or
i would change the the cpu/mobo since you have a discrete gpu selected all ready, my suggestion for that would be
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130620 for MB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113287 for CPU
cost about the same as the FM2 Motherboard and APU you had selected all ready and has little more kick then the A10 in my experience, also overclocks a little better too again in my experience.
In all honestly you could just keep the APU and try to get a bigger gpu like what Preston suggested.
