What should I get for christamas?

Hardware Hub Build a PC

I have an i5 3570k, 8gb of ram, and a 7770(yes it's crap),and a mechanical hd.  I have 400 dollars for christmas and was going to buy the h100i(and noctua fans) and some new headphones for 300 dollars.  I was thinking I could get and ssd, or a new graphics card, or a million other options and was wondering if anyone had any opinions?

New graphics card will be a major step up for you. I would say that should be first priority. Def not the H100i, that's a luxury upgrade later.

Try getting an hd7850 2GB and a Razer Carcharias headphone. :)

Graphics would be a huge performance boost.

For headphones I would get akg Q701s or just 701s (the are the same except the Q701 has different color optoins and has a Q logo on the side because they are endorsed by Quincey Jones) My freind has them and they are AMAZING.

Spelling class. xD Just kidding. I'd go with the dual gpu asus 5970 3gb 384-bit x2 AMD card, but that's just me. You can find great deals on these sometimes when they're in stock or on e-bay.

I know you all are thinking performance but I really want the h100 cause I am just using the stock fan, and I want headphones as mine are crap.  I get 40 fps and that is fine for now, but thanks for the opinions

Honestly, dude, go with the graphics card upgrade. It will dramatically increase the performance of your system when it comes to gaming. If you really want better cooling for your CPU, get yourself one of the Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo's. They are a great cooler and you can pick them up for really cheap. And later on, once you have the hardware and performance you want in your system, go nuts with water coolers and other aesthetics.

Alright I have been reading some reviews and decided to go with the 212 evo and the 660 oc by gigabyte(only 10 bucks more for physx and assasians 3 creed), but I am still stuck on headphones as I have a large head.  Thanks to those who have responded!

I have been looking at the Corsiar vengence 2000(it's wireless), the logitec g35, and the razer tiamat.  My budget is under 100$ and I would like wireless but it's not essential
