I plan to build a new computer in the coming week. I've done some research and found that ivy bridge is just around the corner. I plan to use this system for mostly gaming, but with some video editing and general usage aswell.
Purchase Date: Soon after Ivy release
Budget Range: $2000-3000
Country: Australia
Overclocking: Probably
SLI or Crossfire: In the future
What I have decided on so far is:
Thermaltake level 10 GT Snow Edition:

EVGA GeForce GTX 680 2GB Superclocked (Plan to get two of these in the future)

Samsung 830 Series 256GB SSD

Seagate Barracuda 2TB

G.Skill Trident X F3-2400C10D-16GTX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3

Corsair HX-850 Power Supply

What I need advice on is:
Will the Asus Maximus V Gene motherboard be a good choice for this setup?
What processor should I go with?
Should i go with the Noctua NH-D14? or something else?
I am fairly new to building computers so any advice would be appreciated!
