Hey everyone! I was just wondering if you'd be able to give me some feedback on the parts I am going to get for my home build before I get them. It is mostly going to be a gaming/dev machine with some video editing and photosynths.
Below you'll find the part list.
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

(Prices include shipping and discounts when available.)
I also had a few questions:
What doers everyone think of that monitor? I will be using that one as my main monitor and I have two DELL 1905FP's that I will be putting on the side of it. I am probably going to buy another cheap video card for those two. (I had them running on a radeon HD2400OC on my OLD machine)
How is that case? Does it work well with the liquid cooling?
Is a sound-card worth it?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
**EDIT**- I forgot to put that I could spend a little more if anyone has good recommendations for parts that are worth the money.
