Hello ROG Forum members, Im want to build a new PC and I think it could be something like this:

Asus Maximus V Extreme
Intel Core i7-3770k
Asus Matrix 7970
Corsair Vengeance 4x4gb 2133MHz
Corsair Force 3 60gb
Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB
NZXT Phantom
Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1000w (For future Crossfire)
Corsair Hydro Series H100

What do you think of this build? Thank you 😄
Asus Crosshair V Formula 990FX + FX-8350 + Corsair H60 P/P = 5400MHz

I like what I am seeing. Those sticks of ram will be just peachy with the Ivy CPU mate.

I am not familiar with the case but I am familiar with the H100 and would just ask you to make sure you have sufficient air flow going over the motherboard, remember a water cooling system like the H100 does not move air around inside the case like a air cooler would. The motherboard bits and pieces get a bit warmer without good airflow.
To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

Indeed, very nice components, Electrocabeza! I'm not a big fan of the Phantom though when it's about the H100 (not enough airflow)... Are you really decided on it or you would be willing to think about other cases too?

It could be a HAF 932 Advanced or a Corsair Carbide 500r...

I think, my vote would be for the Corsair Carbide 500R...
