What's the primary use of this rig? If it's strictly gaming there's no need for the i7 or 16GB of RAM. 1K PSU is mega overkill for a single card setup, you could easily get by with 750W or 850W. And instead of the 290X I'd go with a GTX 780Ti if I had that kind of money to spend on a GPU.
 


thanks for your suggestions
it primary use is gaming but my father uses some heavy engineering programs thats why i7 and 16gb ram and 1k psu because i will buy another r9 290x later for crossfire and does the 1gb extra graphic memory and 512 bit give 290x any egde over 780ti
thanks
