Hi guys, Need your advice on a new rig which I am planning on purchasing. I pre-purchased the CPU watercooler as it was massively on sale: Corsair Hydro H100 Extreme. I thought hard about Intel processors / builds vs. AMD and decided to go for AMD considering my budget.

Unless I missed something, you're going to need a case too.  Most of that looks very good.  I approve of your GPU choice :cool:

You picked a high-end motherboard that supports SLI, but a PSU that won't run 2 GTX 760's.  I recommend either getting a beefier PSU (750 watt or higher of a good brand and product line), or getting a cheaper motherboard.  No need to get a motherboard that high-end if you don't ever plan on going SLI with your GPUs.
