I thought air cooling was better for most builds? Sorry for my ignorance, but would i be better with this http://pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-cpu-cooler-krakenx60. As long as the price is close I don't really close.

Thanks for the quick reply.

The Kraken x60 or corsair H110 would be a good choice, plus you can save on 2 of those 200mm fans.

If your not planning to SLI, get a 650W PSU. If you are get a 750W if you are upgrading in the future, get a 850W, so that you can SLI with Future Cards, and try and make it 80Plus Gold, to save a few bucks on your Psu

If I am not mistaken, most cases should come with fans pre-installed. But other then that, once again, looks good!

Regardless it only comes with 1 front 200mm fan and it can fit two in the front. The 140mm fan will go in the bottom of the case. The second 200mm fan will just make the front match. IDK why i care about that, so it is really only replacing one case fan.

I was just told this card was better. thoughts? http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GDDR5-2GB-WINDFORCE-Graphics-GV-N770OC-2GD/dp/B00CU9GOAE
