cpu waterblock - EK Supremacy Acetal/Nickel clean cpu block

Pump/Reservoir - EK DCP 2.2

​Radiator -  EK Coolstream 360mm rad

Hard drive - 1TB WD black

SSD - Samsung 840 evo 250GB

RAM - Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB 2400MHz

Motherboard - Gigabyte Z97X Gaming G1 Black Edition Motherboard

PSU - Corsair AX1200i

GPU - GeForce GTX Titan Black

Power supply is overkill. You don't need a Titan, Get a 780Ti. The RAM is a bit silly.

Specs are on my profile page

 

 Teach a man to fish and he ends up sticking a screw driver in a turned on power supply seeing if it still works.        #KilledMyWifeWithABomb            Resolution is just a number
