HI

I am going to build my furst custom gaming pc soon and i need comments on the components that i have chosen.
Asus z87 sabertooth
intel i5 4670k
corsair 650d
corsair ax760
evga gtx 770 acx superclocked
kingston hyperx 3k 120gb ssd
Western Digital caviar black
windows 7
corsair h100i
kingston beast memory 8gb

And i also need help with how to configure the h100i. Should i choose push or pull? And i want to remove both the hdd cages and just use one of them but move it beside the psu. my friend has the 650d and we tried with his case but we couldnt find a way.
And my last question is how would this pc perform as a workstation.

If you guys have any thoughts or comments please tell me.

Thanks in advance

put it on the top and use pull to get the air out of the case from the top, by passing it through the radiator

For workstation ? What do you mean for which programs ? You need it for Render ?
You should take an i7 and add 8gb more ram like this one.

I know that i should have more ram and a better cpu but how do u think it will perform? I might not even use it for rendering and that stuff, i was just curious. But i am still wondering about how to configure the h100i.
