Hey everyone. I'm looking to build my first pc from scratch, and i could definitely use a bit of help. I have my mind set on a few parts, however. For the video card, i plan on getting a Windforce NVIDIA Gtx 770 4GB of Vram. For the processor I will probably end up getting the Intel i5 4690k. Im looking at the Corsair Obsidian 650D for the case. I plan on getting a 1TB HDD and possibly a 128GB SSD. Everything else i feel I don't know enough about to pick out on my own. I basically need help with the Motherboard, RAM, and Power Supply. The video card will be a birthday gift, and excluding that i plan on spending $1100-$1350. So if the video card were included, id be spending about $1450-$1700. Does that sound reasonable given the components I have picked? The reason I have not chosen the other components is because I just don't know enough about them. Id like my desktop to have WiFi, as i dont have access to Ethernet from where I will be keeping it. Overclocking is definitely an option in the future for me. Id like 8 Gigs of RAM. I will probably pick out a decent HD monitor, and a normal keyboard and mouse for now, but if you have any ideas, let me know. If you have any other suggestions or ideas, that would be awesome. Thanks!
Forgot to mention i will probably have to buy Windows 8 64 Bit

Honestly I think CPU air cooling beats liquid cooling.
You would be better off with a Noctua NH-D14
