Hey, so i'm looking into building my own computer (finally) and i want a few opinions on my setup so far. this doesn't include peripherals, just the comp-specs themselves. Please only comment/message me if you know what you're talking about i'm not up for wasting any time.

(https://secure.newegg.ca/WishList/MySavedWishDetail.asp...)

looking for helpful tips on anything regarding the build or any suggestions you might have to improve it. my budget is about $2500 including peripherals but i'm willing to bend an extra $100 or so if need be.
will the parts of this build even be compatible, i've tried to do my research but it's time to ask for some adice :p

What are you looking to do with this computer? Sooner or later it gets to the point where you need a $5,000 (4k Resolution) television to actually fully utilize a rig with multiple high end video cards (unless you're looking to fold proteins, or mine bitcoin or something along those lines). Right now I have a single ati 7970 , and an 8 core amd processor. It plays all the games on ultra at 50+ fps without ever using more then 20% of the card. The reason for this is because I'm only on a 1080p monitor. Now, there is the a ultra HD monitor (like 2600x1600 or something (which is what my samsung note 2014 tablet has and is AWESOME!). A monitor like that you can pick get in your budget no problem, but still under utilizing a state of the art card. Really need that 4K tv.

A $2,500 rig can't really handle 4K gaming.

For the cooler, use a Hyper 212 Evo. All else looks great.

Use 1 ASUS VG248QE monitor, and a Razer Deathadder mouse and Corsiar K90 keyboard.
