    Just a tad bit overkill if you ask me. I think I stick to air cooling and put that money in performance parts. And if I can't do anything more there, than I guess it goes to games.

    The mobo alone is $600. That's $760 total for the love of god! Anyone considering buying this setup should stop...I've got a better idea involving a Nigerian prince with magical powers.

    $750 motherboard that can house a $300 CPU at best? I'd not buy that even if I had *spoiler*

    Custom water cooling is usually overkill in most cases, but with extreme overclocking (like everyone who has a water cooling rig probably does) the motherboard actually kind of needs to be better cooled.

    $600!?! Where exactly are you buying it? Newegg has it for $399. This is probably the highest end Z77 board on the market. For $399 I don't think that's asking too much... I own this board and love it. If you want a full chipset waterblock, outside of the ROG ASUS mobo's, there aren't many z77 mobos that are compatible. Top of the line Mobo, with the option to buy a Full chipset waterblock. Sign me up.
