Looks good. When did the Corsair cases go up so much in price? I got my 300r for $60

 

EDIT: That RAM is kinda gross... 1600mhz CL10 is sub-par (But not by much) I prefer this instead for better latency

An 550 Watts should be enough, you could save some money. 550 Watts is enough for another 970. But the rest look pretty good.

Are you in the US? because none of those prices are even close to what we have. otherwise, it looks great.

I am considering getting my friend in the US to get the stuff then when he gets back he can mail it to me how much cheaper are we talking about between US and AU (how much will this rig cost in US?)

get rid of the retail os in your shopping list. goto /r/microsoftsoftwareswap and get a windows key for around $25 USD (around $32 AUD)

Only about $1000 usd. so youre saving $500ish. Unless you're going to be paying your buddy for shipping.
