only thing I would change about that, is maybe get a air cpu cooler such as be quiet shadow rock 3 because then you would have to remove the top two sound isolation foam for a liquid cooler which wouldn't be worth it just to say you have liquid cooling, but thats my opinion. Also air coolers are way quieter by like 10dbA

by nooooooo means is it a need however its a nice thing to have to be able to push them frames but if you want to save money you can get a single one

Man put this in Build Planning next time. It seems more appropriate there.

 

To alter SAV1OUR's build: go with G.SKILL's TridentX 8gb 1866mhzCL8/2133mhx CL9 RAM.

 

Two monitor's? K. But I find that weird. Usually I would reccomend a GTX series card, but to push more pixel's I would reccomend sli/crossfire. Maybe 2 GTX 770's/R9 290's will do the trick?

 

Storage: I have heard a lot of bad reviews on Seagate, but I can't validate their quality/dependabilty. But I can be confident in going with Western Digital Caviar Black.

 

Case: Just make sure it has good airflow. And get some fans in there too.

 

 

Those are my two cents, take it or leave it. Yes they are biased somewhat, they are opinions, but I don't just make things up out of the blue. I would say the same to a friend
