Hey guys. I'm currently making a build for a gaming station. I have one ready, and I'm in the process of double checking it before I order. I have about $1100 to spend, and I'm right on the mark on that.

I have two monitors, a 24"in and a 19". Obviously I play on the 24" and at a 1080p resolution. I plan to overclock the processor.

Questions:

Is everything compatible?
When I get all the items, will I be able to install them all in the case, everything fit fine, run it and install Win7, then play games without any issues?
Will it all fit together?
Is everything a suitable choice?

I really need to know if it's all compatible, I'll have lots of trouble if something isn't due to difficulties refunding items. Thanks for help, let me know if you need to know anything else.

Wouldn't it be easy to turn off the LEDs? :p

Also, why change the power supply? I'm getting a combo deal and it's -$80. See here:

Is there something bad about this one?

Nowhere near a microcenter by the way. If I was, that $200 CPU would be mine.

Yea for that price you stay with HX. I got a newegg email with a promo code for the Seasonic x650 gold for 90 USD.

GPU : Get the Gigabyte windforce. I seen the ACX there for $430. You could get the MSI Gaming 770 4GB VRAM for like $20 more than ACX.

The windforce is the original one I had, right?

This? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16814125463

So after that am I set to go? Everything is compatible?

I'm worried the first one will be a bit too big, as the Hyper212 fan I am getting may interfere with it. Will it be ok?
And also what's the best of those, all of them look the same... heh

Get the BLUE RIPJAW series i posted. the CL8 ones.
The windforce will fit. the card actually sits with the fans facing downwards, the cards height only matters in the downward direction, which is away from CPU, so yes CM 212 EVO will fit with the windforce.

I only have the Sniper RAM kit because I did not spot the CL8/1866 G.Skill 2x4GB RAM kit

Also the heatsinks on the BLUE Ripjaws as compared to the sniper are the same height. maybe different by 2mm. should not effect fitting height. Can you turn off the leds on the fans? what about aftermarket fans? I want to get another ones or two but all the leds are common and cheap but too bright for me.
