I was looking for some feed back on a new build I just did after receiving my money back from Cyberpower pc after they tried scamming me.

Specs :

CPU - Intel Core i7 4790K Unlocked Quad Core HT 4GHZ/4.4GHZ Processor LGA1150 Haswell 8MB Cache Retail

CPU cooling - Corsair Cooling Hydro Series H80I CPU Cooler System LGA1150 1155 1156 1366 2011 AM2 AM3 FM1 FM2

MB - GIGABYTE Z97-HD3P ATX LGA1150 Z97 DDR3 SATA3 GBLAN PCI-E16 2PCI-E1 Xfire USB3 HDMI Motherboard

RAM - G.SKILL Tridentx F3-2400C10D-16GTX 16GB 2X8GB DDR3-2400 CL10 240PIN 1.65V Dual Channel Memory Kit

GPU - ASUS GeForce GTX 970 Strix OC 1253MHZ 4GB 7.0GHZ GDDR5 2xDVI HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E Video Card

CASE - Thermaltake Core V71 E-ATX Full Tower 8XSLOTS 2X5.25 8X3.5/2.5 Bay No PSU USB3.0 Computer Case

PS - Corsair CX Series CX600M 600W ATX 12V 80 Plus Bronze Modular Power Supply

SSD - SanDisk SDSSDP-128G-G25 128GB 2.5IN SATA3 6GB/S Solid Stat Disk Flash Drive

HD - seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA3 64MB Cache 3.5in Internal Hard Drive

DR - ASUS DRW-24F1ST 24X SATA DVD Writer Black

I do plan on adding a lot more too it, hence the full tower case but this is just a start

I think that good air will be cheaper, better, and easier than that fluid cooler, or go bigger for a 240mm radiator unit and look at the amount of noise you can stand.

Since yo want to overclock, I would use the Gigabyte Z97X Gaming 5. It is about the same price and has better digital power phases. (You have chosen a decent board, I'd just go better for the same price.)

I would want a higher-performance PSU. The EVGA B2 0750 VR is better, semi-modular and costs $50.

Modern games can be bigger than 40Gb, so I would want at least 240Gb on my SSD. Bigger SSDs are also faster.
