Hello, I am pretty new to the "build your own computer" thing so therefore I wanted someone else give me feedback on my build. I am going to build a computer mainly for gaming but with good editing capabilities. Let me know if some of the parts are unnecessary or if the parts would even work together.

I am going to run a single 1920x1080 monitor (I want to be able to have multiple monitors in the future) and hope to max out the settings of most games.


Here are the specs:

Motherboard: Asus Rampage IV Formula
Case: CoolerMaster HAF X
CPU: Intel i7-3930k (overclocked)
GPU: EVGA GTX 680 FTW+ (the 4GB version)
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB
SSD: Corsair Force GS 120GB
RAM: 16GB Kingston HyperX Beast 1866Mhz CL9
PSU: Corsair AX860i 80+ PLatinum (need the extra power for possible SLI)
Optical Drive: Something cheap

I have heard bat things about the Corsair H100i, About leaks..., why dont you pick up a Coolermaster Evo 212 its about 35 usd and gives nice performance just for the time being, until Corsair Fix their Drivers and the Bad patch of H100i Dissapear.
