Thanks for your time. However, I am planning on keeping 2 slots open for my ram. My friend really wants at least a 680 in his system.

Very nice build. The problem is we have settled with a single card solution unless we can fit a 690 in (which i doubt it). I will however show him your cpu cooler and case.

Thanks!

No problem your very welcome!  

anyone got some more suggestions?

You don't need 16gb of ram. That's WAY to much. I would go 4-8GB of ram.

Alright, so tell me what you use the extra money on?

Also, don't go for the I7 because the I5 has literally the SAME performance and cost 100$ less http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... and get this ram http://www.newegg.com/Special/ShellShocker.aspx?cm_sp=S...

With that you will have about 130-140 dollars to spend on what you want. You could get a monitor, or better sound card/ wifi card. Maybe if you wanna, get a monitor.
