Hi Guys

 

-snip-

850 EVO, newer and better. Possibly also cheaper. That's a really low end case, go for a 300r or Define R5. Everything else looks good! Look for a ram that's 1600mhz or more, and CAS 9 or LESS. I suggest this most of the time http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gskill-memory-f314900cl8d8gbxm. If you want a CPU cooler and you aren't doing any crazy overclocking, the Hyper 212 EVO is fantastic and cheap

Aren't you spending too much on that motherboard?

 

I think that you should go with a 150$ mobo, and use that saved 100$ to buy something like the corsair h100i.

I would suggest a better power supply. Something like an XFX XTR 750W or EVGA G2/B2 750W. 

 

I agree with the Motherboard comment above. Do you need one that expensive ? I would go with a cheaper board such as the Gigabyte Gaming 5 and put the savings towards a better case (No offence Corsair 100R) especially if you plan on fitting a 240mm/280mm watercooler.

 

Also as mentioned above, swap the SSD to the 850 EVO.

Mother board is a bit overkill... Maybe Gaming 5 or 7. And definetly include CPU cooler in the build. Coolermaster's EVO 212 Would do the job (only $30), and It's great Air Cooler. If you want liquid cooling I suggest you AIO, maybe Corsair H60 (~$60) or even H100i (~$100).

Swap the PSU for EVGA SuperNOVA 750W It's way better quality than Corsair CX series.

What case should i get in your oppinion if i would be able to fit an All in one cooler like the Swiftech H220-X or H100i

[AliveGhost13]

Definitely change the PSU, it's not a great unit at the prices they sell at

Ok Thanks Any ideas as for the PSU ?

[AliveGhost13]

EVGA B2 is at insane prices ATM. G2 is good, XFX XTR is ok

About Swiftech:

Watch this: 

 

But if Linus says that It's the best AIO water cooling system on the market I'd say Go for it, if you have the budget. But do some more reviews and research, and then decide.

Ive made some changes
What are your thoughts now ? =)

That looks better, although the board is still pricey. If you are happy though, then it looks fine.

Got an idea for another motherboard with some specs like this one ?

I like the red an black colour and it must have a good wireless function as well

[AliveGhost13]

A good motherboard like the Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 7 with a quality USB dongle would be a good idea and considerably cheaper

[DollyPoppy]
