I want to build a video editing/gaming pc after effects, element 3d, 3ds max, blender, games such as battlefield 3,4 league of legends, possibly crysis 3 or call if duty ghosts. I put this together http://pcpartpicker.com/user/LoneNinja/saved/27oY but it totals nearly 2800 and is like it around 2500 or lower. I want it to have a gtx 780 unless there are better options and definitely an i7. Any feedback or comments are welcome, seeing this is my first time build. I also don't know whether it's better to get a 27 inch or 24 inch monitor. This is a build that probably will have to last me at least 5 years. Thanks in advance

put the saving in ( ) Change mobo to the Asus Hero ($10), I'd change DRAM to GSkill Snipers F3-1866C10Q-32GSR (tighter CL better performance) ($1), could change SSD up to 840 ($30), could go HAF 922 ($110), Seasonic PSU SeaSonic M12II 850 ($60)

Was my old power supply overkill? And what would you say about the parts in general are they compatible? And would airflow be nice and cool? I'm new to this lol

One last thing, if I ever want to overclock will the Noctua cooler be sufficient enough? I can't wait to get my hands on this lol. Hopefully it will last me over 5 years lol
