How is this looking

Cpu: I5 4670k or 4690k if they get in here in the next month or so

Mobo: Asus z-97k

Ram: 8gb 2x4gb 2133mhz

Gpu: MSI GTX 780 ti reference Card

Psu: CORSAIR AX760 80 PLUS PLATINUM

Case:Fractal Design Define R4 White

Btw I know le psu is overkill but it was 5$ more than a Rm650w psu xD

looks good to me, and the 4690k should be in stores in about 2/3 weeks. And you could go for 1600MHz or 1866MHz RAM, because it doesn't really make a difference in agming.

Looks like a good system, You can go overkill on the PSU without having no real negative outcomes, an extra $5 today could save you $100 in a few years when you do an upgrade.

 

I'd recommend you do get a 3rd party CPU Cooler but should be fine for a while.

Beautiful system.

The only thing that's missing is the aftermarket cpu cooler as stated above and it is highly recommented.

oh damn, in the uk if i get that build it will probably be £1200, which is about 2015 USD. Guess in the USA it is the cheapest. :(

well yes it is here and the prices are excellent, but once you put the item in your basket it adds 20% VAT, very high shipping costs and also customs costs, because the item is being shipped from the USA and the price is basically the same as buying it from a store in the UK. Plus if you need to RMA it, you need to pay for shipping costs which also very high, So im better off getting it from a store in the UK.

Everything is cheaper in the USA compared to the UK (More or less). We nearly always pay the same in £ as they do in $ so if something costs $150 you can bet that we get charged £150 or thereabouts.

i know its so stupid cause of the stupid government
