Looks like a nice system.

No need to replace the fans on the Corsair CLC -- they are good quality.

And I didn't need a platter drive either -- a 256GB SSD was enough for my gaming system.

No special settings need to be used for SSDs at all. The SSD will last a lot longer than you will have the system, even using default Windows settings.

Looks like good RAM, and I've seen good reviews on Kingston RAM.

It has one in front, one in the rear, and the two from the Corsair CLC in the top. That should be enough.

If you want more, the case can support three extra fans.

About the only thing I would say is that the power supply is a bit overkill. You could go with a good 650W and still have plenty of wattage for overclocking and/or adding more stuff to the system in the future.

id never pay 1700 just to get a 770 your laughing.
Why buy a 300 mainboard the asrock z87 extreme 4 and 6 score amongs highest of the z87 chipset and is 110 cheaper. A 290 tri-x alone is 15 avg frames more for roughly the same price

I might sli the gtx 770 later, so I need 850w, so the fans should be enough?
Also, I found this ram

Although it's 8 dollars more expensive, it's cl9, not cl10 :D  (faster)

So...
I am only using single monitor 1080p. I want to formula because it has Bluetooth and wifi with the armor. I am going to use the wifi. I play elsword and maplestory. Those games dont even need gtx 770. I think it is plenty enough.
Later on, I might sli gtx 770 though, just in case.
