Why are you spending so much on a DVD drive?

Why no SSD?

If you're not going to use CUDA, get a 7970.

Your PSU is way way way overkill.

pick a smaller size of thermal paste you will never use 40gs of it anless your Building a 100 pcs :)

but it looks good alltho ied drop the water cooler and buy a ssd if it was my rig and fit a good air cooling unit
