How's this build for my friend?

How's this build for my friend?

He wants to max everything at 1080p, for a good 1-2 years.

Firstly, I just want to say that I put 16GB or RAM because he's coming from Alienware and he's like "Hurr durr, more RAM make big difference!!!".

Secondly, he wants it to be quiet.

Thirdly, you might be wondering why I have 2 512GB SSDs and one 90GB SSD. He has a LOT of games, so I needed a lot of storage. Secondly, we couldn't fit Windows or Office onto the 2 512GB SSDs, so I chucked in a 90GB one for Windows and Office.

Also, I want to switch the fans on the H100 (because I've heard they are loud), to something quieter and with better performance (recommendations?). How do you go about doing this with push-pull? Also, I've heard that certain cases won't fit the H100 with push-pull, so case recommendations are needed. (He likes the Corsair 650D, and wants something that is that size or smaller, with equivalent cooling performance (and looks). Also, nothing by Bitfenix. He hates Bitfenix)

Also, I put in the Cooler Master PSU (even though they are frowned upon) because I need a quiet PSU.

I will be overclocking this system, but I still want to keep it quiet.

Thanks

EDIT: Forgot to say the budget. His budget is $3000, and he's able to go up to $4000, but I want to save that extra $1000 for fans, a Yamakasi Catleap, and other stuff like games, mice, and keyboards.

Why not go for a Socket 2011 rig?

As for case, Corsair 800D

Anyone else?

Like I said, he has A LOT of games and apps, and Windows and Office won't fit onto the 2 512s. I'm trying to please him as much as possible so that he doesn't get another Alienware.

Pretty much. He's coming from Alienware, where the 1TB of SSD storage was affordable for him.

Oh wow, the $3249 Alienware only has a 6870 :lol: Seriously that's disgraceful.JC_Spot

That is awful. My $800 build has a 6870. Anyways this build is full of mistakes OP. Seriously...

Would Intel SRT fix the ridiculous idea of having two 512 SSDs and a 90GB SSD?

EDIT: How about this build?

Has a 3570K and GTX 690. Will spend the rest of the money on fans, and other stuff.

I never really say this but; more money than sense?
