Hi.
I'm putting together a mini case build for a client.
Could someone confirm that everything is compatible before i order.
The links are to a Norwegian shop, but the model names are still the same.

Looks compatible to me.

( assuming your going to over clock) Your going to have to manually set the ram frequency ratio to get the full 1866mhz out of that memory.
Also I recommend a psu of at least 850, you can use a psu I could be wrong but use power supply calculator to estimate what that system will need when running at full load from link below
http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp

If your not overclocking, get 1600mhz . 1866 vs 1600 is not a big performance gain for the money if you wanted to save some money.
Also that psu should be fine but I would maybe go a bit more in watts for better GPU/CPU overclocking support... thats my opinion

That's a good system with an excellent power supply. Without overclocking, your power needs will be about 250W for CPU and GPU, so I think that a great 760W supply such as the one you have selected will be fine for overclocking both CPU and GPU. I prefer air cooling over the complexity of fluid coolers, and when you overclock, you will probably need to add more and/or better case fans to handle the extra heat of the GPU.

Thanks guys!
I actually ran an overclocked i7 3770k and 2 titans in Sli on that 760 watt psu haha.
Crashed sometimes but not very often :)
So it will be more than enough for ocing both gpu and cpu.

As for heat. I'm not familiar with this cpu hands on, but I have high hopes for Corsairs water cooling system.
As for the gpu, I have selected the MSI 970 becuse it does not push air strait out like most cards, but rather out the back where you connect the cables.
The reference cards from nvidia, my gtx titans have the same solution and I'm very pleased with it.

So with the corsair watercooling, there will be no heat dispersed within the case, everything will be blown strait out.
