Tell me what you think, what you would change and why.

i would change the case out for something smaller the switch is designed for watercooling really, if you are going to keep it though then i would go for the h110i because the switch can hold a 280 rad easily in the top.

I don't really want to add more cost to this PC and I'll probably be getting a 780 alike in the future + upgrading processor.

H110* It also has 20mm spacing so I doubt it will fit.

The H110.

the switch 810 has slots not holes anyway so the h110 would fit it

I won't get a 780 alike for another year so I'm not waiting that long, the reason I want to get the switch is because in a couple years (3-4) I'll probably build a £3500 pc system with water cooling etc. Having the case now will help in the future.

Oh, it does? Then there shouldn't be any problem.

Only do a custom loop if you can afford it and then some.

Don't do a custom loop until you can buy all of the best watercooling components, and then some to spare in case you run out of fittings, tubing, liquid etc.

Again Corsair performance fans , Worse fans in the world , they sound like Jet engines. Get some Noiseblocker , Bequiet , Noctua or get the best rad/heatsing fan in the entire world : The Scythe Gentle Typhoon.

 

Everything else is good.

Why care replacing the original corsair fans that come with the H100i then , they perform about the same...

 

I'm not replacing, I'm going to do a push-pull config. The H100i comes with two fans, a push pull needs 4.

Linus has made a video explaining that push pull will not help your temperatures on an H100i. I would personally go with a samsung SSD instead of a SanDisk and get the RAM with red heatsinks to go with the motherboard. Other than that everything seems fine.

You should really just be putting in another 770 for sli for better performance.

Gaming rig, right?

Well, I've read that with two 770's in SLI, you'll only be getting 150% performance rather than the full 200% so it's better to go with a more powerful single GPU and yes, gaming rig.

Oh right, I'll just put the SP120's on the H100i and use their fans to put around the system then (probably to cool the GPU) and yeah, I'll take a look at a Samsung SSD and I definitely agree with the RAM, I'll change it now and link you guys. 

 

If you really dont care about noise why not get some delta fans?

 

What Delta fans?
