Some of you might disagree with the Power Supply choice-
You might suggest - Cooler Master V Series 850W Power Supply (RS850-AFBAG1-UK) (The price difference is very minimal so i thought i would go with 1000w power suppy)
In future i will go with SLI and triple screen setup

I have some question
1. Is my SSD good for gaming or I should go with any one of them
~Samsung 840 Pro Series 128GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (MZ-7PD128BW)
~Intel 530 Series 240GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (SSDSC2BW240A401) - 5 Year Warrenty
2. Is my Cabinet good or i go with Cooler Master Storm Stryker ATX Mid Tower Chassis (SGC-5000W-KWN1), which is a little cheaper.
3. I have searched everywhere and found that for 144hz screen Asus vg248qe is the best choice right now. Will this screen deliver 144hz on 2d while i am using display port or dual link DVI.
And do i need 3D vision kit + Adapter for other 3d content (like movies) (can't buy on the budget right now)
4. I know that 4790k > 4770K, please let me know if I am wrong
5. Also please let me know if you have any suggestions for Mouse, Keyboard and Headphones.
Any other suggestions are also welcome
 
Solution
1. Great SSD. 2. see below my suggestion 3.Great display. 4. Best cpu avaliable for a gaming build.

"You might suggest - Cooler Master V Series 850W Power Supply (RS850-AFBAG1-UK) (The price difference is very minimal so i thought i would go with 1000w power suppy)"

So why not buy a Tier 1 1300W gold EVGA PSU for $50 less?

Good rig,

Only go with one SSD, get that 840 pro then a 7200rpm WD caviar blue 1TB HDD. having a SSD as a 2ndary drive isn't that good.
Your computer case is really nice, i'd keep it.

I personally like the Corsair HX1000W psu instead.

i7 4790K is better.

for 2d yes 144hz will be delivered.

Yes you need a 3d kit which is sold separately. And get the 3d vision 2 kit.

Thanks for reply
I am using Evo SSD as my OS and Gaming Installation device - So I will use pro instead of that since pro is faster (and you mentioned it)
and Western Digital Black for Other installation and media storage - And i will be needing this HDD since SSD is very small in capacity, It is also very fast for secondary installation and HD movies and media access.
Yes case is very nice, I saw it in One of LinusTech video (4k Build)

Corsair HX1000W is a very good psu but a little more costier around $229.

Hey you are really helpful
I am going with
Power Supply:[/b] EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 P2 1000W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($169.99 @ NCIX US)
What do you think it is platinum with 5 star and less cost (thank you very much for mentioning EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 - 1300 will be really too much)
And i think i will keeping the 760T case.
 


Both tier 1 PSUs: EVGA SuperNova G2 vs SuperNOVA P2 is a tough fight :)
Good choice though: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/EVGA/SuperNOVA_P2_1000/11.html

SuperNOVA 1000 P2 is enough for your intended SLI
But EVGA SuperNova 1300 G2 would be great for GTX 780 Ti 3x SLI :D

Tri SLI - It will take me nearly next two years ;-)
And in future there will be a lot of superfast gpu coming with low power consumption
So i think i will go with 1000W Platinum one.
