(must have 16 gb ram) the theme will be red and black. i am wanting it to be water cooled also. Here is a parts list i put together. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/ZgNLWZ if it can be improved please reply to this. Thanks!

Did you mean 1000? You put 100

I can't tell if the OPs eyeballs are bigger than their stomach or if he just wrote $100 when they meant $1000...

And that build sucks, for your budget you can get Intel and I'll get you more for your money

Do you mean $1000? Because there is no way in hell you can get even a quarter of the stuff you want for $100, even if used.

Sure, AMD is lots cheaper, but their FX lineup is also really stale as of late. If you're wanting a beefy build, then you're going to want a good processor, and at that price point, the i5 is the king of the hill.

 

However, AMD has made many promises with their upcoming codename "Zen" processors, so this may possibly change.

-Get rid of the Green HDDs - they're not suitable for a gaming rig.

-Go Intel - you can easily afford a i5 6600K for $1000 - cheaper doesn't mean it's good.

-120mm AIOs aren't worth it. At this point, go air cooling - it will perform better while simultaneously being quieter.

-Get a SSD. Makes a world of difference.

-Better PSU - something from SeaSonic or XFX would have much better quality. EVGA's P2,G2 series are pretty much as good as you can get.

-A R9 285 is basically a R9 380 (which you can get for alot cheaper). For $1000, go for a R9 390.

Completely agree with @HKZeroFive. You can go pretty damn far on 1000$, his build for you is far better than the one you started out with.
