what resolution are you gonna run? and what is your budget for this build? also, i would make sure to include a cpu cooler if your going to do ANY OC'ing, the stock coolers always suck xD you *could* OC this build with better cooling, but you wont get too much more perfomence from that CPU... If you give me a budget and and resoulution, i'll whip something up for ya :P

Yes. But so will ASRock H81 Pro BTC among many other motherboards.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

srsly *facepalm* 

 

that shitpost /jk

PSU is waaay overkill. an 850w will do fine

SSD: i'd change that to an 850evo or mx100/200 or any other, just avoid ssdnow v300 because of its slow nand chips

That CPU cooler if you're gping to do a full water cooling loop, just don't get it's a waste of money

For Ram, go 2x8 GB a single stick won't take advantage of the dual channel memory controller that the cpu has...

Sorry for criticizing a lot... *Peace*
