Get a cheaper board, more expensive boards don't improve gaming performance at all. Something like an AsRock Z87 Killer or MSI GD45 Z87 will be more than enough. It'll save about $70 and maybe you can get a more power graphics card. Also, get a 650W to save some money, unless you want to crossfire in the future. Overall you'll have a excellent gaming performance.

Nice build. Why not spend $10 more and get the NZXT full tower though?

Glad to hear that, I will be putting another gtx 770 in sli in the future. So I think the power will stay. On the motherboard, I will into it. Thanks.

- Get cheaper ram. Not sure why this is so dirt cheap but it's decent ram as well

- Get the 212 evo. A much more expensive h100 for example will only be like 5 degrees cooler.
- And agree with Wilma get a cheaper z87 board like the Z87-a unless you really going to use the extra features of the maximus vi.
