Guys, I plan on purchasing a system late this month what will be for gamining. Here are my ideas:

I5 3570K - I may overclock in the future

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H ATX LGA1155 Motherboard - I read somewhere to match motherboard and graphics cards

Kingston 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory I want to have a large RAM drive and use it for cashe to extend SSD life

Crucial V4 128GB 2.5" Solid State Disk

Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Gigabyte GV-N670OC-2GD -X 2- for SLI which I will need for a 2560X1600 display

You need a power supply For testing conducted for SLI 670, the resulting system consumption for SLI is 433W of which 293W are attributed to the gpu cards.

If you use this psu calculator considering your components, the result is 664W (overclocked processor & used 680x2 to simulate gpu OC:

All points out to 750W being more than enough.

Doh! Of course, a power supply. Thanks for giving me the value.

Sounds like a solid build but what I regretted when I've built mine was not immediately going custom water-cooling. My i-2500k was @ 4.5 GHz prime95'd for 24h but my CM hyper 212+ was so noisy I couldn't stand it. I'm sure water cooling would definitely benefit your SLI GPUs cause them shits gon be noisy, boy!

It's very simple to do a waterconfig. youtube videos are more than helpful. just some food for thought. goodluck with your build.
