Any thoughts or opinions?

4gs is around your budget? What does that mean?

The PSU is way overkill, so is the CPU and RAM if it's solely for gaming.

[Moddy]

4 grand is around my budget. I also plan to SLI the 780 ti at a later date with a surround monitor setup.

[inux94]

What games do you play?

The CPU is overkill if all you play is WoW, i5-4670k would cost less and perform the same.

[Moddy]

I do alot of bitcoin. Battlefield 4. I plan to max out Star Citizen. ( https://robertsspaceindustries.com/about-the-game )
Max out Battlefield 4 on 3 monitors at 5760x1080. And all other future titles. DayZ, Arma 3, ect.

[Toffie]

Why are you not getting a 290x?

[Moddy]

I've had multiple bad experiences with AMD and ATI in the past. I keep it green and stick with Nvidia just for my own purposes. Costs and availability aside, I'd rather pay more for an experience that didn't remind me of a troubled past.

[Toffie]

Fair enough mate, was just wondering since a 290x would do every requirement you had better.

[noteworthynerd]

So you plan on mining cryptocurrency with a NVIDIA card? Has something changed that makes that a viable option? Last I knew, it was either use an AMD card or forget about it.

[Toffie]

Pretty much, either you mine with an AMD card or you don't mine at all.

[Lilfrier]

Yeah, AMD cards mine a LOT better than the Nvidia options. My dad's running a pair of 290X cards himself, though he's going Litecoin.

[inux94]

Yeah, you're not going to mine Bitcoin profitably on Nvidia/AMD anymore.

Changed to a i5-4670k because it won't make a difference in performance.
Added CPU cooler in-case you want to OC.
Changed RAM to lower profile, 1.5v & CAS 9.
The HAF case you linked is INSANELY overpriced, it's got an obscene amount of plastic on it; went for a solid Fractal Design Arc XL.
Changed to a higher quality PSU, with the ability to power a 2nd 780ti in the future

Thank you for spending time on this for me, I appreciate it.
