Tell me what you think should be changed or altered, thank you.

Maybe pick the windowed version of the case. You won't be able to see your ballin' colour scheme.

Also, I think that the PSU might be somewhat overkill. With Haswell and a 770 you will never get around 750W.

Get a Samsung 840pro instead of the Plextor M5.

 

 

and please don't use capslock in the title, it makes people hate you.

id grab the new corsair vengeance pro red RAM because those look awesome on ROG boards

Looks great, apart from you should get the windowed version of the case, and the extra speed for the RAM is essentially useless. High speed RAM is only beneficial when running an APU, so unless you get a deal, you are effectively paying for something that won't improve your performance at all.

What wattage and brand would you recommend instead for the power supply?

The 1866mHZ ram is cheaper than the 1600mHZ ram currently, for this manufacturer and model.

~650W Seasonic / Corsair / XFX / Silverstone, make sure they are Haswell compatible, and make sure you have decent Ampere on your single +12V Rail.

Not entirely sure, but I did some research for you.

You could go with this one http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/seasonic-power-supply-ss650km

It is fully modular and has 80+ Gold certification. People seem to like it.

I made the changes that you guys mentioned, however does 650W PSU hinder my ability to go SLI in the future?
