Hello!

I will be building a high end gaming pc at the end of July. It will be for gaming and light image and video editing on a 1440p monitor.
When the Devils Canyon Chips come out I will consider the i7 4790k or other chip to replace the i7 4770k that I have in this build.
Long term, I plan light overclocking and adding a second 780ti next summer.

i choosen the msi mpower because of his 12 Phase DigitALL Power Design and OC Certified: Military Class Burn-in Test Passed

prefer by far the corsair 750d for his design and his architecture and space setup

for the psu i choosen the corsair rm 1000 for his price vs power and quality
