Does this work for a first build?

[blueman05]

Hello everyone! This is my first time building my own gaming pc and I was wondering if this build is compatible with the parts I will be using before I buy all of them. Are there any parts you recommend that I replace?

Edit - I've updated my build to represent changes that were suggested.

Nice build, but you don't need aftermarket thermal compound, or a 4GB video card, unless you plan on playing at ultra high resolution across multiple monitors.

You could reconsider to Hyper 212 evo, its much better than the H55.

Ok cool I'll take off the thermal compound, I thought I would need 4gb to play mod heavy games (ie Skyrim Enbs). I took the H55 because I thought water cooling would be superior? Is the Hyper 212 Evo better at keeping temperatures down? Thanks for your responses guys!

 

[Jacob McIntosh]

Watercooling is usually better, but when you are comparing the CM Hyper 212 EVO with a 120/140mm watercooler, the EVO will win almost every time. Watercooling is better if you are running a 240 or 280+ loop.

As for 2gb vs 4gb, the only boost a 4gb card has is in uber high res with max settings, gaming across 3 or more monitors.

Ok I will switch out the coolers and the gpu. Is the power supply sufficient (it says the estimated wattage will be 428W but I am not sure if that means maxed out or not) and how do I know if the case fan will fit in the case itself?

Also I've read that the Gtx 770 is a big card and sometimes there is difficulty putting it on the motherboard, would I run into that problem?

 

[Jacob McIntosh]

If 428W is the total power draw, I would get a 550W unit to allow for OCing.

As long as your case has 120mm/140mm fan mounts, a 120mm/140mm fan will work.

The 770 isn't that big, you should be fine. The 7990 is a big card. It is 12.4 inches, and the 770 is a measly 11.4 inches.

I'd get Noctua fans, they are hands down, the best fans on the market.

Should I switch them all out with Noctua fans? (Switch the 120mm and 200mm?)
