Posted September 30, 2014 - Get MSI Z97-G55 SLI for the motherboard - Either get a Hyper 212 EVO or a better AIO for the CPU cooler, budget AIO's are kinda bad - Get http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gskill-memory-f32133c9d8gxl instead for RAM. Much higher frequency and lower CAS latency. Can be quite helpful in content creation.

Posted September 30, 2014 need a better quality PSU tbh... CX series are for basic builds and dont have stable power.. I recommend the Corsair RM850 He doesn't even need 850W @Ruins Agreed though. If you want a higher wattage PSU try looking at the EVGA G2 750W. That PSU is perfect.

Posted September 30, 2014 I agree, I just like having extra power for upgrades and the RM fan will virtually never need to kick in as a result of the power That does make them run a bit hotter though (Mainly an issue if fan side up).

Posted September 30, 2014 Author Good AIO coolers come at a price. H105 with 2 SP120's is pretty good but also pretty expensive how aboout Cooler Master Seidon 120XL, Be quiet! Dark Rock or noctua 6 dual heatpipe or corsair H60. if none of these work then i will just go with the Hyper evo 212 because i know that is really good.
