will this be enough to run all games at res 1080? even at 3d
 
Is there anything in this build im missing do you guys think? Or do you think

something could be improved or a better option. I have had a recent post up with

some feedback and i have updated the list to this. I was going to get all optional fans for the antec case as well. I don't want heating issues.. But i wont be OC unless i get bored
 
If this doesn't run 3D graphics, I don't know what does...

It is a very powerful build, but if you plan to overclock that cpu, go with the Noctua NH-D14 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835608018). Best hsf right now. Although, if you are partial to the 212, it's still very good.

Here is a little bit faster RAM

Max voltage for i7, though.
 
So i should be able to max out with max res quite easily? Good! ... also is there any chance of bottlenecking if i don't OC the cpu?

I am planning to get this all at the same shop in Australia. So i'm limited to the range i can get but they have a decent range.. I'll run through the options you gave, very appreciated thanks! :)
 
Is there anything else i'll need to keep adequate cooling? Airflow... is there any great cases to recommend?

I did the mistake in the past when i got a 8800GTS i got it with a mid tower SHAW which had horrible airflow and it overheated my card. Plus I had used the generic psu hah good ole days! :)
 
I don't think you will have issues with bottlenecking. If you do, the turboboost feature should be enough. Although, with a nice cooler, you could get this up to 4.8-4.9GHz. A full tower is going to allow more airflow normally, so i recommend the HAF series by Cooler Master. It's not pretty, but they are really great air cooling (good for water too).
 
Will the noctra and the HAF 932 be enough to OC to 4+ghz? ofc i'll be placing fans whereever i can if i know it'll work.

Someone told me on another thread that you get almost same performance for half the price of a 590gtx if i go 560gtx ti x2 bout 400 dollars cheaper... sounds good
