The extreme3 or D3H would be good. 

Why watercool ram, such a large psu, and no gpu?

What's this build for?

I'm still undecided on GPU as of right now. I'm making sure I look at all possible options before selecting one. Its gonna be for gaming, video editing, and live streaming to YouTube and hooking up a console and console capture.

Well if you're not in a rush, wait for the 9000 series and plan later.
