Everything looks fine at a quick glance, it is able to be overclocked and 600w of power should be enough for your demands.

The Ram isnt ok. This is triple Channel Ram but you need dual channel! So just 8 gigs or 16gigs. Also for CPU cooler you could go with the h80 or H100 in water cooling or something basic like the Hyper 212 evo from Cooler Master.

ram is a tripple channel kit, you need a dualchannel kit. for example

 

http://azerty.nl/8-750-399203/g-skill-ripjaws-x-f3-12800cl9d.html

 

E9 series are sold normal and with cable managment, i would buy the CM version.

 

http://azerty.nl/0-1073-454701/be-quiet-straight-power-e9-58.html

 

3770k is overkill, a 3570k will do fine.

 

And a  normal 840 would be fast enough too. If you want to save some money.

 

The 670 seems really expensive, i would buy a  7950 -> faster and cheaper.

as far as i know the Corsair H100i will fit in the 500R, i would go with that.

you can put some http://azerty.nl/0-1088-509166/corsair-air-series-sp120-quiet.html

 

for style on that. A http://azerty.nl/0-1088-509168/corsair-air-series-af120-quiet.html at the back and your done :D

Intel Xeon E3-1230v2. Its an 3770 non-k for the price of an i5, and you can cheap out on oc features and get a cheap b75 or h77 mb.

- Do you have any suggestions for a air CPU Cooler?

 

- Is this a nice card? it seems pretty fast and has a nice red color: http://azerty.nl/8-3921-621992/vtx3d-radeon-hd7970-x-edition.html  >> this site gives a 9.1 :) (http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/VTX3D/Radeon_HD_7970_X-Edition/33.html

 

- Could you explain me some more about de Power supply choice?

Nope, i cant recommend Vtx3d cards. Havent owned one myself but i heard terrible things about it.

 

Also, why to you need air cooling? Watercooling is around the same price and much better/easy to install. :)

 

PSU: Take the wattage you need (in your case 600w is totally fine if you dont want to go with sli/cfx in the future), Chose a good brand :P, High efficiency (80plus bronce,silver,gold,platinum,titanium) and good amps on the 12v rail when sli/cfx'ing. You could look for cable management (be quiet pure power series) and fan profiles too, to make everything a step better.

Thnx for all the suggestions!   I have changed the built a bit again. What do you guys think about this? 

 

http://azerty.nl/winkelmandje/winkelmandje/?legen=1&product%5B616464%5D=1&product%5B558962%5D=1&product%5B452185%5D=1&product%5B568296%5D=1&product%5B434781%5D=1&product%5B451284%5D=2&product%5B536998%5D=1&product%5B398658%5D=1&product%5B454701%5D=1&product%5B526536%5D=1&product%5B496883%5D=1

 

 

I am stil thinking about it, but is to worthy to put a http://azerty.nl/8-4360-513431/asus-gtx680-dc2t-2gd5-grafis.html and http://azerty.nl/8-2533-485488/intel-core-i7-3770k-3-5-ghz.html Instead of the ones i have selected now?

 

I work with big files all the time (movies, music and unpacking-winrar). I hope de 3770K wil help speed this proces up. Is this true or is it just difference of couple a seconds?

I personally don't like Seagate as i have had nothing but trouble with them but i think thats just my luck haha but You might want to consider replacing that GTX 670 for the new GTX 770 its about the same price and better performance.

Depending on your preference, I would go with something more like a Corsair 600t , if you can spare about €60
