Just wanted some all round advice on the build listed below, specifically the CPU which I went for as it is cheaper than an i7 4770 and I don't plan on overclocking. Please note I live in Australia and would prefer to use the site these parts are listed on.

Also the build could change to include a 290 instead of 280x depending on custom cooler release date.

I would say stay away from the Xeon chips as they are for workstations and servers, instead i would get an intel i5-4670k and oc it. Also i just built a system and i found msy is cheaper than pccg.
