Is this a Good or "Great" Computer?

[xEndeavour]

Hey. I honestly plan on using this computer for gaming and video editing every once in a while. Do you think these would be good, reliable specs?

Intel i7 3770k - Possible OCd
Intel LGA1155 DP67BG Mobo - I heard Intel Makes great mobos
16 Gb of Corsair Vengance Ram - Great brand I believe
1Tb WD HDD 7200 RPM - For storing games and files
120 Samsung 840 Evo - For my OP system
GTX 780 SLI'd - I love my EVGA!
750 Watt EVGA Psu 80+ Bronze

I know what you're thinking about this psu, that it wont be enough. I would like headroom, but these are my calculations:

GTX 780 x 2 = 300w
3770k = 130
Case, fans, storage, etc = 100w

Also, I've heard that EVGA uses high quality Japanese Copaciders, so I believe that a good 750w PSU from a good brand like EVGA should do the trick.

The question is, do you guys believe I will be able to play the games in the next few years at 1080p near 60Fps?

I say great!

Great for the most part, except for maybe your wattage. Though you've already explained yourself.

First off, I dont believe Intel makes great motherboards. Buy a brand like ASUS or Gigabyte. If you plan to overclock your cpu make sure you have a motherboard that supports that. Something like this board,
ASUS MAXIMUS VII HERO LGA 1150 Intel Z97 $210
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132125

You dont need 16 gb of RAM to game, save the money and put more into your SSD. You would be better off to go with the Intel i5 4670k. Your PSU should be suitable for your needs, but I would buy more power to be safe like 850 to 1000 watts to future proof.. You will be better off to buy just 1 780 GPU, that will play any game at ultra settings with no problems. You don't need to run SLI, save the $600 and upgrade your SSD to 500g or 1 tb

Thanks for the suggestions. However, I forgot to mention. When I get my second 780, I may plan on hooking up a second monitor to my computer, for the internet and what not while I game. And, the reason I went for 16Gb of Ram is because a lot of the editing programs I use are pretty Ram dependant, not to mention Im an extreme multitasker Also, I wanted the i7 because a friend of mine told me the Hyperthreading would help with my multitasking. Not sure if it's true, but if it is then I'd want to go with the i7. So yea, that's why I wanted 2 780s in SLI, for that extra power.

And other people online say that Intel motherboards are very reliable, especially if Im kinda new to building. Im know knocking asus, however people say only to get Asus if I plan to become a frequent overclocker.

(and Im a fan of overkill)

Your PC is great. I am a big fan of overkill too. And I use the two monitor setup for the exact same reason. And with two 780's you will be just fine for gaming for a while. Your RAM is overkill for the time being. However, if you want to overclock your system. I would look into getting a CPU cooler. Air or liquid(custom or closed loop) is completely up to you. It is a necessary component if you do plan to overclock. If money is tight, RAM is the one area where you could cut from in order to afford a cooler. In my opinion, there is no point in buying an unlocked processor if you don't plan to overclock. Either way. Enjoy your PC!
