Hi All

I am building a new rig for gaming and I have purchased the following components.

MSI Radeon R9 280X OC x2 ( Crossfire )
Gigabyte Z97-Gaming 7
Corsair Vengeance® — 16GB Dual Channel DDR3 Memory Kit ( 1600 mhz )
OCZ Vertex 60- 240 GB SSD

Please help me getting the rest of it.

PSU :- How much power will be needed
CPU:- Intel i7 4790K or i5 4690K
Case:- Corsair 750D or NZXT H440
Cooler :- Corsair H100i or any better .

I will be over clocking a bit if not much.

Please advise guys.Will be playing on Samsung 42" 3D LED TV

For power - a good 850W PSU should suffice, but you can go with 1000W just to have some headroom for OC.
CPU - if you`re only gaming, the i5 is enough. If you`re doing video editing or any other CPU intensive tasks, you`ll be better off with the i7.
Case - I think it`s up to personal prefference. Both are nice, so get the one you like most.
Cooler - H100i or H105 id you want water cooling, or Noctua NH-D14 or D15 if you`re into air cooling.

Nice build! Have fun with it!
