Hey, guys. For a while, I've been working on a computer build to play games at max setting. With DayZ (Standalone) coming out, and other extremely hard-hitting games, like heavily modded Skyrim and other games w/ similar performance needs, I want the best from my PC. However, 2200$ is really high up there. I am thinking of finding ways to lower the price here and there. The build is right here:

- I am only gaming w/ a 1920 x 1080p monitor, so I am not too sure about the need for the 780. I need assistance in this department especially.
- The motherboard is going to be another big section: I mainly wanted this motherboard due to matching of brands w/ the video card (I heard that you get better results from doing this, to a degree), and because of the wireless built in. However, I think that if I were to change both the motherboard/video card, and guess a USB wireless adapter instead, I'd be right on. Question is, which mobo/card combination?
- The sound card: The plan was to use it in collaboration w/ my Astro A50's, as I want to use my optical cable. I would really like to cut corners here, and find a way to eliminate the need of this card, and use the motherboard to work with the A50's.
- Keyboard/Mouse: I would like a really nice keyboard/mouse combo, but it would be nice to take a little bit of money off of this section, while keeping a really nice set.
- CPU Cooler: I wouldn't mind taking money off of here, but I still want a really good cooling system to use w/ OC'ing.
Other info:
- I plan to overclock.
- I would like to use my A50's w/ the 7.1 capabilities.
- I would like to color-match the build. I would prefer this, but it is not mandatory. I would like for the build to be red, but blue is fine too.
- I live in Canada. A build tailored to Canada is mandatory.
- I plan to use 2-way SLI in the future.
I believe that this is it. Along w/ suggestions, I would like to see reasoning for each choice. Thanks to all in advance for any help provided.
