hi everyone, i'm quite new with the building my own pc thing so i'm asking for some advice with building my first one.
Approximate Purchase Date: next month
Budget Range: 900 ~ 1000 (with shipping and tax). I can stress to 1100 if i have to.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming > edit video (once in awhile) > web
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg, amazon
Location: New York, USA
Parts Preferences: I'm deciding between FX-8320 vs i5-4670k for cpu (or any suggestions); GTX 780 for gpu (unless you have other good options)
Overclocking: Yes (will the CM Hyper 212 EVO enough for overclocking?)
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe in the future
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: i sold my gaming laptop because i cant carry it around school so i think might as well have a pc at home.
I only need to build the tower because i have mouse + keyboard + monitor (24") + msata (im gonna transfer to sata) + 250gb samsung 840 pro SSD. I want to play games at 1080p max settings.
Any suggestions will do. Thanks!

-you dont need a gtx 780 for this build its kinda overpriced around 500$.
-intel 4670k is alot better than 8320 in single core performance and overall performance very important for high cpu intensive games.
-Hyper evo added.
-the gtx 770 is also a very powerful card that should run any game 1080p 60+fps
-this psu should hold the specs with no problem.
-the corsair 300R is a very decent case and it can hold any long graphics cards and totally quiet.
-this build is worth it.

may i ask why not the i5-4670k?-As you can see, with the i5 4670k, you will loose on GTX780, because it is almost $100 more expensive than the FX 8320.
-In games, both are solid processors, and the $100 difference is not worth it in my opinion. Plus as you have stated above, you will need to do some video editing, which the AMD's 8 core will be much better than the Intel's i5.

Well that is why he will compensate with GTX780. Btw we are talking about loss of 5-10 fps on average in some games(except Skyrim, that game just loves Intel). The difference in fps in ARMA3 between the i7 4770k and FX 8350 at stock speed is 1FPS. The FX 8320 can be easily overclocked to FX 8350 speeds.

-dont go with the 8350 its a waste of money its just a clocked version of the 8320 with the 8320 you can just easily clock it to 4ghz without wasting extra 30$-get a better ram brand my recommendation "G.skill".
thanks...ill get the g. skill then....also is 550w enough for this build? (either 8350 or 8320). Will that CM hyper 212 enough if i want to overclock?

The Asrock 990FX Extreme 3 doesn't support FX 8350, only FX 8100 series. Btw you don't have HDD in your build.

I'm curious about the graphic cards....i saw on GIGABYTE they have this (http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4...) - a gtx 780 with core clock 1019mhz + 1071 boost clock. It has higher core clock than any other gtx 780 that i can find (on pcpartpicker). Is that good? should i go for it or they're all the same.

Get this PSU, with the 550 you will be on the edge if you want to do some overclocking.
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seasonic-power-supply-ssr7...
As for overclocking, the Hyper 212 Evo is good for moderate overclocking, something like 4.1-.4.2GHz. Beyond those speeds, you will need liquid cooling.
Here is another suggestion for motherboard:
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-motherboard-gaz87...
It is $40 cheaper and has almost all the same features and overclock abilities as the Asus one.

Now i have couple questions:
1) will this case good if he want to put another gtx 780 as sli (i chose that motherboard to support sli and H100i for future sli and OC + it fits perfectly with the case based on the pictures i saw on newegg) in the future?
2) will that power supply good enough for the sli setup the in future?
3) is the gigabyte ghz edition any good? i heard some people say its unstable. Should i go for the cheaper one (please suggest)?
4) should i go with the gtx 780 ti and use a cheaper motherboard and cooling to fit ~1200?
P/s: I have a lot of ssd and hdd so i wont need to put any storage. the budget is around ~1200 but if you can suggest anything that can lower the price but fit mine purpose, please do say. Thanks!

This will be enough for your brother, it will run any games at high resolutions. It is pretty good small factor PC.
No need for SLI, you will experience more power draw, more heat and sometimes games experience microstuttering or will not work just right with dual GPU setup.

I selected EVGA GTX780, since it is smaller in size and cheaper, btw the performance will be the same with the Gigabyte's verison.
And to answer you question, yes, the Corsair 350D will fit 2X GTX 780 without any problems.
But remember, you will need PSU with bigger wattage if your brother will be doing SLI. Here are some suggestions about PSU for SLI configuration:
