the mother board is a little over priced i was about to buy it but everyone told me it was over priced so i chose the msi mpower bigbang motherboard but if it doesnt match your color scheme then im sure you could find one that does. also the evga gtx 680 classified is a little over priced i would recommend the evga gtx 680 superclocked signature 2 from what i found its the best for your money. i would also recommend this ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820104371 its a bit more expensive but alot faster. and for a gaming pc an i5 3570k will do just fine but you can keep the i7 if you want to its more than power full enough. also make sure that if you stick with the formula V you get a case that can support an E- atx motherboard the cheapest case ive found that supports that is a NZXT phantom its around 120$US. also what about hard drives and ssds and a heatsink or watercooler? hope this is helpful just make sure you do lots of research. btw i would not get the maximus V formula because of the large size of it, you have to pay extra for a case big enough to support it and most of them arent cheap and there arent many out there.

There really isn't a whole lot of difference between 670 and 680. If you want the best value get a factory oc 670 and it'll run just as fast as a 680 at $100 less

However if you're not on a budget, buying the EVGA 680 4gb version is pointless unless you plan on running multi-monitor display.

First off, you haven't mentioned what kind of cooling and case you will using, so I'll assume they are undecided for now

The PSU is somewhat overkill for only a single GPU system, a 650 or even 550 will be just fine (unless you plan on running RAID config and/or custom cooling)

The mobo you chose is overkill as well since by the sound of it, you aren't too familiar with the hardware, so you won't be using most of the extra features you get

The ram is fine but if you just plan on gaming, 8GB is sufficient

CPU as well, if you just plan on gaming 3570k is good enough

Overall I think you should swap out the mobo and gpu for something that delivers more performance for value.

If you are really concerned with looks then get the ASUS Z77 Sabertooth, or else get a simpler board

As for the GPU, with the amount you're going to spend on the EVGA 680 4GB, you can get 2 660TI's that would greatly outperform the 680 in both games and multi-monitor configs

If you haven't decided on a cooler, the H100i is a great simple all in one unit

and for the case, that's just really up to your tastes but if you are spending this much already, you'll probably want to show it off in a windowed case

Hey, Thanks Alot For Your Help well i know The V formula is expensive but i haven't seen any good one i just like the coolor and the way is look Red etc

About the GTX680 classified is more higher clock speed than the FTW.. so i decide to go with that because you know if i buy the gtx 680 superclocked signature 2 i will always say ohh why i didn't just spend more couple of money to get the higher one

About SSD water cooler Hmm i'm almost about to over the Budget My Budget is around (£ 1,200 ) & i over this price thought maybe to pick a diff motherboard cheap one so i can lower the price i really want to build a good pc to be happy withbecause you know when you buy there is no way to go back so i wanna make sure everything is necessary and worth the price

Idecide to go with the I7 3770k Because some time i'd like to do Video editing so is good for both Gaming & Video editing.. i guess

Ram 16 Enough for them both aswell,

the most expensive thing is just the mobo & the Graphic card is really hard for me to go for the Evga gtx 670

so the classified is 100$ more than the signature 2 and its only 14mhz slower than the classified for me spending $100 for 14mhz is a little silly the signature 2 will also run cooler

Is it really necessary for the double fan ? to cooler

Hmm what about the > EVGA GF GTX 670 4GB SC Graphics Card with Backplate

Dual 660ti will give you better performance than any single 680 (not to mention 7970 > 680 performance at a lower price)

But up to you to do whatever you want

If you are ona budget, i would say that you should go with an MSi Z77 MPower socket-1155 board. It is quite cheap in comparison to the board you chose, but it is ready for overclocking and all the stuff you could ever want. If you want to know more about the board, you could even watch Linus' own video about it!
