ram : gskill 16gb
mobo : b85m itx

Water cooling on GPUs is not needed unless you're running SLI setups and high OC. Stock coolers on video cards are much much better than stock cooling on CPU. The stock cooler will be fine, just ensure good airflow for the card.

Well you should go with a 760 over a 670 as they are the same card but the 760 is updated. It depends on what you're doing, if it is heavily openCL then amd should be better, but not by too much, if it is cuda enable then nvidia will be much faster.
