Hello and thanks for the help. I have been reading/researching these components for a week or two and just wanted opinions from others that know more about computers than I do =). I do intend to upgrade and would like this computer to last me a while. That is why I selected the 860W PSU because i highly doubt i will need anything bigger than that. I selected the GPU after reviewing a bunch but couldn't find a benchmark test putting all the Asus, MSI, Evga GTX 780's together. Not totally sure about which OS i should run since i read Win 8 is a dead platform and is more taxing on the GPU than Win 7. I prefer a smaller case but sadly few websites have height and depth as a filter option that i have seen so see what you think and let me know.
Thanks
Planning on upgrading in future
CPU Intel I7-4770k
GPU adding another GTX 780
Mem. If i have need in future
and upgrade cooling with either fans or something like Corsair H100i Liquid cooler
