Hopefully this goes in the right place !
I am building a new computer as my current 2600k and 16Gb is getting slightly long in the tooth.
PC will primarily be used for arch-vis and environment modelling, and rendering with VRay.
I would like to get into some fluid simulations for fun at some point.
I also need to do some basic photoshop and probably some kind of video editing, but not as a primary use.
On the side, I would like to do a bit of gaming when I am not working.
Anyway, this is what I have thus far:

I have discounted a Quadro and plumped for the GTX 770 4gb - hopefully that should be enough for displays, I am not interested in SLi, and for that matter I am not too interested in overclocking either.
*edit* I forgot to add, I already have a 240Gb Samsung SSD and a further 7TB in HDDs, dual monitors, mouse keyboard etc. Just have to reinstall windows 7 again
Any pointers before I pull the trigger on this and purchase would be appreciated, especially regarding the RAM, as I am not 100% sure on the brands etc
