Any suggestions for any changes? Feel free to tell me, I please you to do so.
 
I wanna play, and I'm not sure if I'm really going to overclock. If I do, I think I'll do it in the future, not yet. Maybe I'll go for a 2xSLI in future too.
 
Regards.
 
#Edit: Can u guys tell me how you would install all those fans? I actual thought about using the 3 stock ones from the case + the stock one of the water-cooling-cpu-kit. I'd install one on the back, 2 at the front, and the cpu one at the top? Or maybe changing the back fan by using the cpu cooler, but where should i put my 3rd case fan then? Should I buy 2 more for the top? Some help here would be great.

Get this if you arent going to be doing a lot of multi tasking.

I also suggest getting a cheaper case so you can afford a better graphics card

I do a lot of multi tasking. That's the only reason why I'm taking 16 GB of RAM. If you're aiming for the speed of the RAM, feel free to show me some source why you think I should take a different one.

 

In case that I won't go for a complete water cooling system, I try to get a big-tower or a really good air-cooling tower. I found this one and I th ink it's great for an air cooling system. - Beside the fact, that I don't see a point in getting this card. Your reccomended card got less clock speed then my picked 970, and less memory clock speed. It just got some more cores.

 

So far, thanks for your reply sir.

 

#Edit: Is this CPU cooler is enough?
