Hello, will an MSI GTX 780 Lightning fit in a Corsair 750D with a Noctua NH-D14, ASrock extreme3 and Corsair 16gb Vengeance ram and Corsair AX760?
 
Solution
By default, the motherboard will set the RAM to run at 1600mhz. All you need to do is to go inside the BIOS and set the timings to the specified timings on the RAM (1866mhz, CAS 9, 1.5v).
Also, I just checked and the Vengeance Pro barely fits. The Noctua is only compatible with RAM that is 44mm and lower and the Pro is perfectly 44mm.
Yes everything should fit perfectly fine.
The only thing that I would question is the RAM clearance for the Noctua NH-D14. Are you using the Vengeance RAM with the large heat spreaders or the LP version? The one with the large heatspreaders would definitely interfere with the NH-D14.

The Pro vengeance ram is quite low so it will fit, also although this question has nothing to do with the thread, if I buy 1866mghz 16gb ram, and my i5 4670k only supports up to 1600mghz, what will happen?
