Hello. So as the title says I am making a gaming pc and I need your tips and suggestions what could I improve/change/etc. in my build.

Here is the build:

mobo: asus maximus hero VI
cpu: i7 4770k
Cooler: noctua nh-u14s (not sure if i can get this in my country... if not i'm thinking of going for evo 212)
gpu: asus gtx 780
ram: corsair vengeance 8gb 1866mhz cl9
psu: corsair tx750 v2
hdd: wd black 3,5 1tb
ssd: samsung 840 evo basic
case: Corsair obsidian series 450D

Looking forward for those tips :) thx.

The motherboard will be overkill unless you can find a really good liquid cooler the reason: the hyper 212 can only push the CPU so far as it;s capabilities go that wont be enough to max out the potential of the motherboard in other words some of the potential the mobo has will be gone to waste.

If you can afford it go for I7 4790k over 4770k or 4690k over 4670k for i5.

I would recommend a decent 120$ mobo Z97 of course with SLI and Cfire capability otherwise your build looks good

Get the i5 (I recommend the 4670K or the 4690K.) instead of the i7, that way you can get a better PSU or a closed loop liquid cooler or the newer version of the Maximus Hero VI (which is the Maximus Hero VII of course).
