Hey readers,

I've wanted to know if this build is going to be enough for Programming and mostly gaming.

I'll probably want to play at 4k however I don't mind taking the setting down a notch.

I'm not going to Overclock my CPU at all so don't suggest it please.

Also my MAIN concern is cooling, it's really hot here in the summer (Israel) and I'm afraid that my computer will die from the heat.

One more thing before I get into the specs, I want to know if I have enough space to expand into 2 GPU at the future so I want to know if the case will support it and if the power supply will be enough or if I need to take a higher voltage PSU.

Specs:

Intel core I7 4790 3.6GHz 8MB L3 Cache s1150 - Tray.

Antec Kuhler H20 1250 Liquid Coolling System.

Asus Z97 - PRO GAMER LGA1150, Intel Z97, DDR3 1600.

G. Skill Aegis 2x8GB DDR3 1600Mhz PC3-12800 Kit CL 11-11-11-28.

Asus GTX970 4GB STRIX OC DirectCU II GDDR5. In the future I'll expand to: 2x Asus GTX970 4GB STRIX OC DirectCU II GDDR5

Western Digital Caviar Black WD1003FZEX 1TB Sata III.

Intel 530 Series SSDSC2BW120A401 120GB SSD Sata III.

Asus DRW-24D3ST DVD+RW x24 Black Sata.

TP-Link TG-3468 PCI-E 10/100/1000Mbps.

CoolerMaster 650W Active PFC 80+ Bronze RS650-AMAAB1-EU PSU.

Thermaltake Spacecraft VF-I Middle Tower Series Black Case (No PSU).

Samsung S23C650D 23" LED PLS Monitor.

Thanks for taking the time and reading this.

Have a nice day

A 970 really isn't enough to play 4k so upgrade fast and also you may want to just try to save for a 980 at first which is a better bet until you can sli those just an idea

I would change the cpu cooler to a H100i gtx or a swiftech H220-X.

About the psu, it's decent enough for me.

GPU's are good. Cooling wise and performance, it's ok.

edit: at 4k, there's nothing really out there capable of that. You can play some games that don't require much. But games with AAA games, that won't be great.
