Okai so basically I'm building myself a new gaming and video editing rig for the first time and really can't decide on a couple of things:
Specs are as follows:
Cpu-I7 3770k
Gpu-GTX 780ti
Psu-corsair 700w or sea sonic x750 (which one)
Motherboard-have no idea. I really like the Asus maximums iv extreme but it's quite expensive
Ram-8gb corsair
Case -fractal design r4 or nzxt phantom 410 ?
Heatsink-noctua nhd14

Thanks any changes are appreciated I would also really like the budget under £1100 (pounds)I know I went over the budget that's why I would like someone to change bits around.

Thank you all.

Mobo - Maximus VI hero or z87 ud3h
Cpu 4670k/4770k because:
Haswel so more power and future proof
not dead socket since its 1150
seasonic x750 or corsair RM750 for psu
Need an HDD or SSD?
If its to much maybe just get the 780 but the 780ti is a real powerful card.
Just ask if you need anymore help!

I wanted to upgrade to a haswell build but apparently it only gives about 5-10% more power so I'm really not bothered about that.and I also need to stay under £1100

Well its not much more and the reason i said to get haswell is that it is not on a dead socket like ivy-bridge which is 1155 and now its 1150 so you can upgrade with haswell
