I had made a build with some feedback from this forum before. I changed it a little bit. I want to know if this build would be good for playing latest games with high settings. Also, if the power supply is enough if i decide to add another 780ti in sli in the future. I chose the I7 because i will doing video editing and streaming as well.

Changed the ram to 8x2 for upgrade capacity and changed the case to full tower (mainly due to looks). I also wanted to make sure the cooler would be enough for the SLI.
