Hey everyone,
So I want to build myself a pc and i made the following setup. I double/triple checked if components work together or not, BUT a more expert eye would be better.

Any suggestions of better parts around same price level ( or less) is welcome.

So:

Processor: i5-4670K
Graphics: GIGABYTE GV-N770OC-4GD
HD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB
Motherboard: Asus Z87-Pro iZ87, SATA600 RAID, USB3.0
Ram: Corsair Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9
Energy: Corsair Voeding CSM Series 750W, Modulair
Case: Corsair Midi Tower Vengeance C70 ATX
Drive: Samsung DVD (dont really care)
CPU cooler: H100i

What do you think?

if anything, ditch the water cooler in favor of putting more money into the gpu. but you will be happy with the build overall.

So what would you suggest? I cannot entirely eliminate the CPU Cooler, I think its is essential. Best case I can put half the money for the H100i into the gpu, so around 50Euro/75Dollar, which I do not think would improve my GPU that much? And would end up with an average cpu cooler?

why do you think you would need a water cooler for your cpu to work properly? if your using it for overclocking, then thats fine, but you will be gpu bottlenecked more-so which is why i suggested putting a little more into the gpu, you will get more benefit from that. a cheap coolermaster hyper212 is good enough for a decent OC anyway.
