i havnt thought of this build all my self my mate has just wondering what you guys think and if theres anything i should improve to get better performance.

i plan to make it a dual gtx 680 in the future.

Personally, i'd do this:

Switch RAM to http://www.mwave.com.au/product/sku-ab47838-corsair_vengeance_cml16gx3m2a1600c10_16gb_2x8gb_ddr3 - 16Gb is waaaay more than enough and the performance difference is negligible - it's also low profile to allow http://www.mwave.com.au/product/sku-aa16616-noctua_nhd14_cpu_cooler_does_not_support_socket_2011 instead of the H100. H100s = noisy and pumps fail regularly.

Get Win 8 instead of 7. 8 is awesome and the future. 7 is awesome and the past. Stay with the times - the learning curve is minuscule.

Take your Sammy back and try and exchange it for a Crucial, SanDisk, Intel 3** or Corsair. Samsung seems to have taken a step back from the 830 to the 840. Reliability has decreased with the 840s.

The rest is on the money.

ohk.

i got told that air cooled wasnt as good as water cooled...

my room with the computer on in summer time would be about 40degress + as got no airconditioning thats why i went with the water cooled option.

also got told that windows 8 doesnt work well with games its bugged or something.

[Cowboy1600]

Sealed system watercooling is really good but arguably no better than a good air cooler. A good air cooler is cheaper, quieter and more reliable. Room temps don't affect either more or less. I was set on WC'ing but after months of research simply couldn't bring myself to do it.

Win 8 is awesome and you shouldn't have any compatibility issues.

I guess we need to evaluate about thermal conductivity of each cooling system. Just like the latest exploring, how the latest computer systems are kept cool. And definitely by working on those ideas, we could have some better solutions.
