Would you call this a high end or mid end system?

With a Core i7 and a GTX 780, it's certainly an high-end system. But:

- I wouldn't take this Corsair CX power supply. They are cheap and tend to break often. Instead, go with a better quality unit from either Seasonic, XFX or Corsair (except the CX Series).

- Take note that you will need a K-version CPU in order to overlock in the future if you ever need it.

- Also, why do you need to have the Windows 7 Ultimate version ? You could have all the same features for less with the Pro version.

I past your build on Partpicker and got a final price of 1808$ (with taxes and shipping): http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2EnNb

Have fun building !

The windows 7 ultimate was a free from a friend that owns a pc store, so no harm there.

I will probably wait for I7 Broadwell, only if it uses the same 1150 Socket.

If not I might consider a I7 4770K.
