I have a question before I reccomend a case, have you already bought all these parts?

[Ryan_Stein]

that psu is enough for 2 780's why so big?
also I love my H440. but the fractial design r4 is good and the 450d

Not yet! I'll buy in July on my trip to USA! But I don't want to change the hardware anymore..

Because I pretend to Overclock the i7 to 4.8MHz. 

Is it a bad option?

I'd like to edit your build to a beter gaming build, considering this build is more oriented to people who video edit as a job, rather than a gaming build, so, I'll save you money

the 16gb of ram won't be utilized for gaming, the 4gb of 770 is kind of useless most of the time, so I reccomend a 2gb version or a 780 3GB for the similar pricing as the 4gb costed., lastly, I would like to say that the 4770k has hyperthreading which you won't need, so a 4670k is a better choice for a bout $100usd cheaper.@Rafael_BR

Well, my first intentions are to play games but I don't know what I could use more. And part of my job is to edit videos, but I rather Final Cut Pro X than other video editors, so I use my MacBook Pro early 2011 as well.

To tell the truth, I wanna play Flight Simulator X (+addons) or/and X-Plane 10 with 40/50 fps average. Do you think the configuration I built isn't good or it's about saving money only?

man, even a 5ghz over clock on a extreme edition i7 and a 770 wouldn't need 850. you could get away with 600 watts. a good seasonic 600-750 watt is enough to have headroom

Nice! Thanks man!

What do you think about these two PSU options? @Ryan_Stein?

 

EVGA SuperNOVA 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply.

 

Corsair RM 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply.

MY build was for saving tons of money and possibly using the money on something else like more monitors or a second GPU with that saved money.

And it will have about equivalent performance to what your original one was.

Good job you brought this up FSX with all add ons is one heck of a graphics cruncher and most gamers or pc tech people don't test a system with it unless they are flight sim people.

I would get as much and as fast onboard graphics card ram as you can afford and nothing wrong with 16gig of system ram nowadays its the norm and will futureproof it when doing high end work / applications.

for the CPU i am not valid to comment on the i5 or i7 as i don't own one. i switched to AMD about 6 years ago and all i know is they are good but cost more thats all, and some say for games go intel and other will say AMD for workstation, but AMD is going out of mainstream cpu's (as we know at time of writting this) hope they come out with AM4 haha.

so its basically "swings and roundabouts" (figure of speach) each to there own, i think if you get the top i5k you will be fine also to make sure you have haedroom you can never have too much processing POWER and so a good i7 will also be fine. 

A good Nvidia 780 or a AMD R9280x/290x will also do the job, you have to get what you can afford and match everything up so it all works in harmony.

@asusfan Thank you man!

Can't wait to start building my new gaming PC.

[asusfan]

getting back to the main subject (case) well i assume you want ATX? and do you want a side window case?

do you have a colour scheme in mind?

dimentions, do you want something that is tall and thin (tower) or slightler less height and wider?

 

so so many cases out there you have to know what you want and everyone has different taste in things.

then you have to look into the cooling system this can make a difference to what case you go for.

 

good luck

Just so you know the gigabyte r9 290 is like $15 more than that 770 and performs MUCH better im not sure how much but i would say like 15%

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 4GB WINDFORCE - $398.63 (amazon)

 

Gigabyte Radeon R9 290X 4GB WINDFORCE - $529.99 (newegg)

 

 

The difference is $131.36 not $15 man hahahaha.

 

But I saw the benchmarks and it's really better than GTX 770, thanks!

[IrshaadH]

He's talking about the 290, not the 290x

[Rafael_BR]

He's talking about the 290, not the 290x

 

It's true, my bad @Totally-A-Hero hahahahahaha

 

But now I choose the Gigabyte Radeon R9 290X 4GB WINDFORCE.. very very nice benchmarks!!

When will it be released?

I'll be travelling to USA soon.. I won't have time to wait!
