Case: NZXT Phantom 530 White - I prefer the 500R and Storm Stryker in white.....tho the new Phanteks has me drooling. The 500R is usually discounted on newegg by like half..... one week they discount the black one, next week the white.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.1390832
MSRP for both = $330 ....newegg combo after MIRs is $190 for the black, again next week wiull be the white....they been doin this back and forth for about 3 months.

If ya wanan drool - http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Phanteks-Enthoo-Primo-Case-Enclosure,23778.html

CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken x40 - not a fan of these self contained units tho Antec and NZXT much better than Corsairs

Motherboard: ASRock Extreme 4 - Id don't use Asrock in builds over $1,000 .... wary of component selection .... would use G45

RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB (2x4gb) - Id use the 1866 Mushkins
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226223

PSU: Silverstone Strider Plus 850W ST85F-P .... nice PSU but not the HC850 from the combo

Monitor: ASUS VE248H - $75-ish more for the 144Hz model
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236313

Video Card: 2x EVGA GTX 770 ACX - Don't know why EVGA puts on agreat cooler but saddles their SC series with reference PCBs / VRMs when everyone else uses 780 PCBs and beefed up VRMs on their 770s . Id do the MSI

MSI version - Core Clock: 1137 MHz / Boost Clock: 1198 MHz and $10 cheaper

EVGA SC - Core Clock: 1111MHz / Boost Clock: 1163Mhz
