Donating my current rig to my brother.

Is this build compatible?

Can the PSU handle xfire and a huge amount of overclocking.

Is the case big enough?

Cooler good enough for overclocking?

Don't need any more HDD have loads in the house now :)

If there's anything missing, please let me know.

Picked up that cooler, Don't really want a HAF. I want a change, my old system has that case. Any other suggestions?
 
I'll be doing video editing, video streaming, photo shopping. Bit of everything.

I went for the 7970 lightening because I believe it is a very good overlclocker.

Thanks for letting me know about the low profile RAM. Would never of thought of that.

Went for the Antec 902 Nine Hundred Two (V3) Case and the XFX Pro 850W Core Edition '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply.

Just waiting on Stulids seal of approval :)
