1. The motherboard is too expensive.
2. I suggest low-profile RAM. You don't need heat spreaders on DDR3. They run very cool.
3. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think 750W is a bit borderline and cutting it close for GTX 780 SLI. So I would up it closer to 800W for SLI or drop it to 600W - 650W for a single. Putting it in the middle ground is just a waste of money.

Yeah i see what your saying but the ram you suggested was 2133 or something and the motherboard can only lake 1600 atm, also im keeping it single because im only going to use 1 monitor maybe a 21-24inch, lastly why does everyone not want me to get a corsair PSU? also the motherboard why change it?

What do you mean "the motherboard can only take 1600"? Where are you reading that from? If you are sticking with one card, then I would save some money and lower it a bit. I have no objections to the Corsair HX series. Maybe the people who want you to change it do not like Channel Well Tech. As for the motherboard, it's $200 (aka too expensive).

When i say 1600 i mean this
DDR3 3000(O.C.)/2933(O.C.)/2800(O.C.)/2666(O.C.)/2600(O.C.)/2500(O.C.)/2400(O.C.)/2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333,
see how you have to overclock it, i don't know how to do that lol and the ones you suggested was 2133.

And with the motherboard i agree $194 is quite pricey, but the ones you recommended i see no reviews on them like no one buys them?? i see 4 reviews on Newegg at 4 eggs
