Okay so here is what I have so far:
Graphics -
Nvidia GeForce GTX 760
CPU -
Intel Core i7-4770K @ 3.50GHz
OR
Intel Core i7-4770 @ 3.40GHz?
Motherboard -
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Pro Gaming with Killer Networking & Sound Blaster Intel Motherboard

OR
ASUS MAXIMUS VI HERO LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131989
And what is the difference from,
ASUS Z87-A LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131981
Motherboards confuse the heck out of me! Am I on the right track? Or should I look at other mobos?
RAM -
Looking for a (2x8GB) pack if you can suggest one to fit the motherboard you choose. I don't understand how to match them from the compatible lists. Unless you think 4x4G is better for some reason? (or cheaper) And should I use 1330 or 1600 for my build?
Storage -
Samsung 840 EVO 250GB. But I don't understand the difference between MLC and TLC and what model is best.
PSU -
I was thinking the CORSAIR AX series AX760 760W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS PLATINUM
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139042
Or should I go with an 850 Gold rated?
Cooling -
Can someone please suggest a liquid cooling or some sort of cooling system to use that is compatible with everything else? This is the part that is most complicated to me.
As for the case, I've been looking around at AZZA and NZXT and others but I haven't found any that I really like that is also reviewed well. I want something that looks (pardon the term) badass and cool, yet is still functional. Room for the gsu and a ATX comfortably. With a window and back panel for cable management. My razer m&k are blue. Can anyone suggest a case? (You can ignore this if its too ridiculous, sorry.)
If I set it up right and everything works, I am going to learn how to overclock properly if that changes your answers.
Thanks for your help guys!
