Mobo: MSI P67A-GD65 P67 LGA1155

Processor: I7 2600

Ram: Corsair Dominator DHX DDR3 1333MHz 8GB

Gpu: GTX 580<333

Psu Corsair AX850

Cpu Cooling: H50, am not gonna overclock so much it will hold the temps down.. Thats why I grab the 2600 not the 2600k!

Samsung Spinpoint F3 1 Tb

Ssd as an future upgrade as the prices continues to go down!

For fan replacement il grab two Noctua NF-P14 FLX 140mm fans and put in tha roof

Looking good?
 
First of, wait until April before purchasing so all the Sandy Bridge chipset problems will be sorted, and by than the P67A-GD70 might be released.

Power Supply: Corsair AX-850, full modular, 80+ Gold, and super reliable.

Case: While the TJ07 is a good case, it's dated, and it isn't perfect, although you are going water cooling, so should be ok. I personally would go for something like the Lian Li A70F, than either mod or buy a roof that has mesh, and fan cut outs for easy liquid cooling. Or maybe the soon to come out Xigmatek Super Tower case. Of course if you are choosing the TJ07 since you like the look; it's meant to be a very good case to water cool with.

Graphics card: What games do you play, since for instance if you played WoW, the 570 will be better, since WoW doesn't scale well at all with SLI and Crossfire.

Boot Drive: You might want to consider an SSD boot drive, if you have enough money.
 
Also what sized radiator and you planning to use, and which components are you planning to water cool?

EDIT: Found your other post about it, so nevermind. And yeah the TJ07 is probably the easiest case to get a quad rad in.

I get some discount from my dad and i will get an ssd as boot drive 4 sure;D

I dont realy play so hardcore games like crysis, gta iv etc i only play like mw2 black ops and some other fps games:D

And i go for the Tj07 but it costs 300 bucks but i get for 150 bucks lol

thnx for tips:D
 
Maybe look at the Gigabyte P67A-UD7 for a mobo

and just as zeals said before corsair is a good brand to go for psu
 
Rofl, I'm an MSI fanboy as well xD

Also what fans are you planning to use with the radiator? I would recommend Noctua or Noiseblocker. Silverstone AP are also good for rads.

Sure you don't want to grab some 1600 MHz RAM, price difference is more often than not so negligible 1600 MHz is a better bet.
