Hey guys ordering the following on monday or tuesday just want to run it past you guys first.

Intel Core i5-3570K
Asus Z77 Maximus V Gene
16GB (2x8GB) G.SKILL RipjawsX 1866MHz CL10 DDR3 Ram
Asus Xonar Xense Sound Card + Sennheiser PC 350 Xense Edition Headset
Samsung 840 Series 250GB SSD
Silverstone TJ08B-E Temjin Evolution
Corsair H60 2013 Edition ( with duel Apache Blacks in push pull )
EVGA 4GB GTX 670 FTW + Backplate

Already have a new psu waiting for it a Corsair AX850 and Windows 7 64bit.

Thanks in advance
 
Can not really find any 16gb low profile ram at 1866mhz (ooo just noticed doom a tjo8 user nice how you finding the stock 180mm fan?)
 
Thanks m8 but the problem with the WF card is it exhausts in the case and as its a small case it needs to exhaust out the back also gpu I put down is 4gb.

How about this ram Patriot Viper 3 "Venom Red" 8GB DDR3 PC3-14900C10 1866MHz Single Module X2?

Appriciate it guys but spec is pretty much set im just wanting to know if the stuff ive picked is ok basicaly, maybe a couple of change here and there possibly ram ect but not a full change.
 
I may switch the gpu to the MSI 7970 Lightning BE how would that effect the temps in the case? Also how about this ram Patriot Viper 3 "Venom Red" 8GB DDR3 PC3-14900C10 1866MHz Single Module X2?

Does it matter that the ssd you listed is notebook/apple series? Also if i do go for the 7970 Lightning I think I need one of these OcUK Value 3m Male - Male Display Port Monitor Cable is that right to use my Dell 27" properly?
 
Dell UltraSharp U2713HM 27" at 2560x1440 is my monitor.

As for the GPU I am still a tad up in the air about it due to the fact I know the Lightning would out perform the EVGA 4gb 670 FTW but as ive said before just a tad worried about the heat not exhausting out the back.
 
Yeah probably right m8 I dont think there will be too much performance loss between the 670 and the Lightning.

Also came acorss this ram Patriot Viper "Black Mamba" Generation 3 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz
 
Just came across these what do you think guys might be decent with the red leds too hehe. GeIL Black Dragon 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit
 
Well ordered this last night "Samsung 256GB SSD 830 Notebook/Apple Series SATA 6Gb/s KIT" noticed it was the last one in stock so i grabbed it :)
