This is my first gaming system and I would like some advice to know if any of my parts are incompatible or wrong.
MOBO: ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0 AM3+ ATX http://bit.ly/1hDoyqG
CPU: AMD FX-8350 4 GHz http://bit.ly/1f2EEYK
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO http://bit.ly/1e3W59p
GPU: MSI Geforce GTX 770 Lightning 2GD5 http://bit.ly/KlgAqA
PSU: Tacens Radix VI 850W http://bit.ly/KtJKDw
CASE: NOX Coolbay VX Green Goblin http://bit.ly/1eKwK5Q
My main concerns are if the VRM, MOSFETs and those things will last a long time and will be compatible with both the CPU and the CPU Cooler (I've heard tower coolers heat them a bit). They come heatsinked but I don't think you can put a fan on them. I've thought on buying a downward-blowing CPU Cooler but they are quite expensive. I MAY overclock the processor in a far future if it doesn't perform enough and I've read that a fan on the CPU transistors is mandatory if you do OC. How can I solve this problem?
On a side note, my first thought was MSI 970A-G46 (http://bit.ly/1jifQih) but I've read somewhere it doesn't support octa core and high tdp cpu.
About the GPU, I plan on buying another gtx 770 on the future and do a SLI with them (that's why I'm going for this MOBO). The thing is, the Lightning version of the GPU is a bit limited, as I've only found 1 out of 10 shops that sells it. This GPU comes with higher clock speed and I don't know if buying the Twin Frozr version (which has less clock speed and is more avaliable to purchase) will be bottlenecking the other GPU Another thing I'm worried about is micro-stuttering, but I guess nVidia will come with a solution for it so I'm not that much afraid.
Finally, about the PSU. It's quite cheap (around 60 €/50 GBP/80 USD), but I've read a lot of opinions and they are favorable to it. I'm going for 850W because of the SLI. Most PSU around that wattage are way more expensive (100 €/82 GBP/135 USD) but come with the "80 Plus" certificate. The thing is, on the spec sheet of that PSU on their website it says it has 80+ efficiency. Doesn't have the famous certificate though. My main corcern is if it will be enough for the SLI, the CPU, the case fans, and a couple of HDD and if it will fail somehow (short-circuit, voltage peak, whatever...). I'm a bit paranoid in there. Luckily it has all sort of protecions (UVP, OVP, OGP, OTP, OPP, OLP, SCP, NLO, PFP, TFP) and a bunch of certificates ROSH, CE, ERP/EUP.
Sorry about the text wall, but I want to do this well. And sorry about any possible grammar flaws, misspelings or typos, english is not my native language
TL;DR:
VRM, MOSFETS, PWM, etc. are good in this motherboard for the CPU? Will the overheat on OCing or fail somehow?
Do the GPUs have to be exactly equal (brand, clock frequency, etc) in order to SLI?
Is the PSU good enough?
Thanks in advance!
