Hello again!
I have used some days now to find the optimal gaming seup, and i think the one i have now is roughly in my pricerange but i havent checked it out yet, first i wanna know if i can use this setup will it work. By that i mean will the processor(Overclocked to 4,4GHz) be good enough for the graphiccard and will the PSU be good enough, will the parts be compatible with each other? :D
Thanks in advance! :D

Very nice build but you haven't listed a PSU? I would recommend the XFX ProSeries 750W Modular PSU.

That should play everything on 1080p for a year or so. I prefer the Gigabyte GTX 770 OC personally but the Asus DCUII is a very good card.

You have the Noctua NH-U12S already? That is a good cooler but Cooler Master Hyper Evo 212 is best bang for buck. Noctua NH-D14 is a very quiet and excellent air cooler that costs a bit more. You could go all-in-one water cooler such as H80i, H100i, Thermaltake Water 2.0 Extreme, Cooler Master Seidon. CM Hyper Evo 212 should be fine for 4.4Ghz on i5 though.

So what you say is that EVO is:
-Quieter
-Cheaper
And just 5 degrees more? Really? It dosent sound that much but how much is that? How "severe" is it. And what else can i do to reduce the cost? :D Thank you for the response! :)
