5960X is just plain stupid, get the 5820K

 

Also, if you don't do 3 ~ 4 SLI/CF go for 650 ~ 750W PSU

What are you using this for?

 

5960X is a waste of money for a gaming PC that could be dedicated to a water loop. 5820K is enough for gaming and light rendering.

why do so many good cases only come in black and white

buying the 8 core for anything not done professionally is a waste.

Newegg doesn't carry this cooler so here's my cooler: http://www.swiftech.com/H220-X.aspx

 

When I get it I will do a build log!

Nice parts.

Keep in mind we are due for 2TB+ SSD's soon. so maybe keep that in mind. Adata, Sandisk and Samsung should have some by or for 2015.

On LTT builds with extreme chips... are not welcomed that well. but do a build log if you were planning one I don't want to discourage you. OCN is a better place for this rig, plus the people on there are crazy enthusiast in terms of knowledge.

LTT is just more fun IMO, there are many scallywags, that make it interesting and fun.
