Hey, i'm getting i7 4770k and Gainward GTX 780 and i'm wondering if i need watercooling if i overclock? I have never overclocked anything before. I'll be using 2x 120mm and 2x 200mm case fans + Noctua NH-U14S So what i'm wondering is if i decide to overclock, should i get water cooling?

I would like to play the new games in ultra without overheating anything. aswell, so is this enough for games like bf4, bf3, newst cod etc?

No. Your cooler is very good and will be better than most all closed loop water coolers. unless you spend $300+ on a custom water loop it is not worth it. Stick with what you have. You will be fine.

Your CPU not overclocked will max those games no problem. An i5 would perform exactly the same as well.
