But which cpu cooler should I buy? Is this cpu cooler fine hyper 212 evo?

Is this for gaming?
What's your monitor resolution?
Can you link me to the psu? I seriously never heard of Netzteil.

How is Hyper 212 Evo for CPU cooler?

That's not going to work. If you want to use an LGA1150 chip, you need to get an LGA1150 board.

I'd suggest the GA-Z87X-D3H for SLI and moderate OCing.

You need a 1150 socket motherboard to go with your Haswell CPU

Okay, thanks. But do this work ASUS MAXIMUS V GENE (MAXIMUS V GENE)?

Someone Somewhere · Aug 20, 2013

Nope. It has to be an LGA1150 board. That's another LGA1155 one.

You need one based on the Z87 chipset. I'd recommend the GA-Z87X-D3H, ASRock Z87 Extreme4, or Asus Z87-A.

Someone Somewhere · Aug 20, 2013

Looks good.

realchaos · Aug 20, 2013

I would definitely spend a bit more on the psu. The Corsair CX series are crap.

Are you sure that this one is better?

realchaos · Aug 20, 2013

Definitely. Antec HCG and HCP are extremely high quality psus that are near the level of Seasonic psus. The only reason you don't see the very much around this site is because it's expensive compared to other brands in the U.S.A. I noticed that in other countries, Antec HCG and HCP are usually cheaper or about the same price as other high quality psus.

Generally, Corsair is a great psu manufacturer. However, they have one series of psu that are now crap. The Corsair CX line-up in the past used a Seasonic OEM, which was very high quality. A while back, Corsair changed the psu from a Seasonic OEM to crappy Channel Well capacitors. Now, they are very bad and Corsair's worst psu on the market.

Someone Somewhere · Aug 20, 2013

Yup, those are very good.

CX is a little on the overrated and cheaped out side. I would be cautious.
