Hi there. Here's my new build, just looking for a second pair of eyes and any suggestions if you've got 'em. I am specifically looking for a cpu heatsync/fan that might work nicely with this build along with confirmation or critique of my mobo choice.
Purpose: Ground up for video editing (FCP APP), heavy gaming, entertainment system (VPN hub), 24/7 capable, programming
Overclocking: Yes, but not to push the limits
Budget: What you see, so 900-1400 flexible
Expected lifetime: 2-5 years depending on upgrades
Potentially: 2nd video card via SLI, memory upgrade to 24/32gb, two monitors
Climate: Temperate (0 to 100)
Desired: Quiet, modular PSU, cool (temperature...), low power consumption (though not to sacrifice major performance for power), BIOS control and like customization capabilities
Purchase Date: Unless someone says anything shocking immediately, the SSD, Case, and PSU will be today (catching a newegg instant savings). Other parts will be by the end of August. I am willing to wait for significant price drops if there is some new tech coming out within a month or two.
OS: Win7 64
