Sorry I'm very new to toms so if I do something wrong just let me know I'm just looking for some feedback on my parts with this being my first personal build. I do have some experience building and with different parts I'm mostly just looking for some outside prospective. Being that I have to buy the parts I am really hoping for conformation that this is good selection and really encourage constructive criticism. This build is for streaming, editing, game development and especially gaming.

  • cpu- intel core i7-5820k
    cpu cooler- corsair h100i 77.o cfm liquid cooler
    motherboard- msi x99s sli plus ATX lga2011-3
    memory- crucial ballistix sport 16gb (2x8gb) ddr4-2400
    storage- kingston ssd now v300 120gb and WD green 4tb 5900pm
    video card- msi geforce gtx 970 4gb twin frozr v (2-way sli)
    case- inwin grone gray atx full tower
    power- EVGA superNOVA NEX 750w 80+ gold certified fully modular
just some other things windows 8.1 a wifi adapter optical drive that sort of thing
anything else please let me know. Thank you very much for any feedback.

Looks pretty good to me. Couple of things I am going to recommend is a different SSD, and rather than 1 4TB HDD, I recommend two 2TB HDDs. Then for the SSD, I suggest running away from kingston completely. The Crucial, MX100, BX100, Samsung, 850 series, and any Intel SSD are much better options for an SSD. Reasons being real world read/write speeds and the quality that Kingston deprived from their V300s. The V300s WERE built good, but then Kingston thought it would be a good idea to pull the wool over everyone eyes and make them a lot cheaper.. Anyways, my reccomendation goes to the BX100. For being the best quality/performance/$ drive on the market. IMHO.

Then for the PSU, you don't want that one. That is the old, cheaper, really not great, EVGA power supply. Instead, get it's impeccable brother: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-220g20750xr

Hope that helps.. Feel free to ask any questions :D
