Looks pretty good, though I'd recommend getting a 240 or 280mm aio instead of a 120 or 140mm.

 

Love my hyperx fury black ram, I've got 4x4GB so my mobo is filled up :P

same for my i5 4690K, its one damn nice CPU, though I wish I got the i7 4790K cause I edit/render videos every now and then, so it's performance boost in that would be nice.

The RAM from the OP is cheaper, as was his mobo and case :/

(He said hes trying to keep it around $1000)

might buy in september 

 

hmmm

 

h80i is a no go IMO, its not worth the price.

 

 

That motherboard doesn't support SLI and it's lacking on the heat spreaders.

 

this should be much better, had to change the case. PCPartPicker was showing incompatibility with your original case and the new CPU Cooler I added.
