1. You need a motherboard.
Pick any lga2011 motherboard. There is no need for the most expensive.
Here is one:

2. You need ram.
You want documented ram compatibility. If you should ever have a problem, you want supported ram.
Otherwise, you risk a finger pointing battle between the ram and motherboard support sites, claiming "not my problem".
One place to check is your motherboards web site.
Look for the ram QVL list. It lists all of the ram kits that have been tested with that particular motherboard.
Sometimes the QVL list is not updated after the motherboard is released.
For more current info, go to a ram vendor's web site and access their ram selection configurator.
Enter your motherboard, and you will get a list of compatible ram kits.
While today's motherboards are more tolerant of different ram, it makes sense to buy ram that is known to work and is supported.
More ram is better. With your budget, buy the most your motherboard can handle. Ram speed is secondary.
3. If your apps can use the CUDA capabilities of Nvidia, then buy a Nvidia card with a fair number of CUDA cores.
For gaming on a single monitor, a GTX780ti is as good as it gets. Only if you will be gaming on triple monitors might dual cards be needed.
4. Your psu needs really are minimal. They are determined by the graphics card. A 650w psu can handle even the strongest of graphics cards. I might suggest the Seasonic X650

Nothing wrong with 750w either.
5. A case is a personal thing. Lian-li makes very good quality cases.
If you want quiet, look at this list:

6. I strongly urge you to use a SSD for the "C" drive. I will never again build without one.
It makes everything you do much quicker.
A one hour windows update takes 15 minutes. Files open instantly.
Look for a 240gb Samsung evo. Use your hard drive for storage and workfiles.
1. Yes, thank you. (I feel so awkward, I don't know what to say here XD)
2. But what about other parts? For example the CPU I picked, it said it needs to have a specific RAM card (DDR3 if I remember correctly)
3. I have Hexa-Core (6) on the CPU if you didn't know, both because my personal opinion and also because of the videos. I'm no computer expert, but it gets really frustrating if someone uses their opinion as a forcement, unless the physics don't apply (as in like they're not compatible). I do recommend a 4-8 core CPU with good GPU card for the gaming, I've heard a ton of times it's a good combination.
4. I'll look into that. Before I posted this I was thinking about Dark Power Pro 10, but first I need to gather all the other stuff so I know the total wattage.
5. Design would be very very much approved, but the noise is the most important thing. Biggest problem in modern videos is that the computer makes too much noise, and that leads to either bad video, or then the need to remove the noise with a program, which then also sort of ruins the music and commentary.
6. About every second post/forum I see about having an SSD is horrible idea, and then the other every second post I see about SSD says it's impossible to live without one. I know I should indeed get one, but my problem is that I've heard (not sure if it's true, but I'm assuming) that if you have an SSD as the performance booster and the HDD as the base disk, you CANNOT render videos while playing a game. Not that I couldn't do something while it was loading, but the exact problem; some recorders render WHILE recording. And most of the videos are going to be about gaming. I haven't really decided what recorder I'm going to use, not Fraps, but maybe DXTory or PlayClaw.
Sorry if my text is too long, I don't know how to shorten things.
