So here is my build right now:
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($339.99 @ Newegg)
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14 65.0 CFM CPU Cooler ($77.99 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI Hero ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($189.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LP 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($159.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($89.99 @ Newegg)
Video Card: PowerColor Radeon R9 290 4GB Video Card ($405.91 @ Newegg)
Case: Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced ATX Full Tower Case ($129.99 @ Newegg)
Power Supply: Corsair Professional 850W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($149.99 @ Newegg)
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B3ST/BLK/G/AS DVD/CD Writer ($29.98 @ Newegg)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 - OEM (64-bit) ($99.99 @ Newegg)
Monitor: Asus PB278Q 27.0" Monitor ($557.58 @ Newegg)
Keyboard: Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013 Wired Gaming Keyboard ($127.99 @ Newegg)
Mouse: Razer DeathAdder 2013 Wired Optical Mouse ($61.98 @ Newegg)
Headphones: Razer Kraken 7.1 Channel Headset ($99.99 @ Newegg)
Total: $2521.35
Does anyone have any suggestions? I was originally going to go with the Fractal Design Define R4 but the R9 290 is 10.9" and the R4 can only fit 11" cards so I didn't want to push it.
Should I stick with the Noctua or go to a water cooled option like the H100i for the CPU. I want to get some pretty good overclocking in the mid 4 GHz or above range.
Also are the stock fans on the Haf 932 sufficient or should I get another one?
