Round total came out to 1501 a heavy chuck of change but worth it if i dont have to upgrade anything but the video card in the next 6 years. My major question is do i need to order anything else?

i have taken Computers Apart (mostly my own) for years but never build one after doing alot of research i found out its not what it was 10 years ago and should be relatively easy to put together

First did i forget to order anything i will need?

second are any of the parts subpar or can i get better for next to same price?

any and all options welcome thank you again!

This RAM has better timing and lower latency, only $5 more.

Are you mainly gaming on it, or will you be doing CPU-intensive rendering, photoshop, video editing, anything like that?

AMD 6950s are about the same price and offer better performance.

Your Blueray drive is out of stock.

Do you really need liquid cooling? You got an excellent case which will give amazing airflow, and all your products will run just fine on air cooling. Liquid cooling is more for quietness, and I don't think it's worth the hassle. But if you do, go for it.

Good call on the ram, And the Liquid cooling is because i saw a friend with that same pump and the thing is a lot easier to install then the Stock fan.

I plan to overclock the CPU to say 3.9 or 4.2 (not now but later) and figured it would work great also its a closed system the only thing am worried about is if the pump fails i wont notice and BOOM there goes the CPU.

This is my first time making a PC my self i have only ever owned 2.. my first was a Cyberpower and my 2nd was a Dell from bestbuy.. i took them apart and put them back together again so many times i decided to make my own this time.

hope i got everything i need

Ok sounds good. To restate my previous question,

If so, the i5 2500k Is a great CPU, and the only difference between that and the 2600k is the 2600k has hyperthreading, which will only benefit you if you're doing any rendering. You will not be disappointed in the 2500k, and it'll shave $100 off.

I Like to record Videos of World of warcraft raids. and stream SC2 everynow and then.
 
which will not benefit muck from the i7, the i5 is more than fast enough, and unless decoding/encoding then there isn't going to be much of a benefit and the only difference will be unnticeable to the naked eye, only extreme benches will notice it.
