If you look around you can get the new 4790k for less $ then the 4770k, great choice for your psu, also have you looked at evga's ti's better cards better customer support. The rog swift should be released very nice monitor for 1440p, good luck on your build..

Yeah that system will rock 2560x1440 at real high settings. I like everything but...hmm... I would agree with abvolt about the CPU; I think for a new system you really want to get Devil's Canyon 4790K. The stock 4.0GHz and 4.4Ghz turbo give you guaranteed performance at the same, or even lower, price and some 4770Ks cant do 4.4GHz...

If you wanted to try a bit of OCing (and I presume you do buying the "K" CPU) you might like to think of a closed loop cooler like the H105...better cooling makes it all so much easier...

Another question: what monitor should i get? should i wait for ASUS pg278q or get PLS/IPS Panel monitor(because TN Panel monitors are crappy?)i'm lightweight photo-shopper, video editing.And a GAMER.

Opss i wrote i7 4770k by wrong i'm getting an i7 4790k(because that i got the z97 mobo) oh @Arne for OC?i'm just going to light OCing!(because for reality it does not boost my game 😉
@abvolt But does EVGA Worth the extra 30$?and what model of EVGA Card have the green leds?

I´d recommend two SSDs, one for OS and one for games. And a spinning HD for storage.
