Please see the shopping cart...

I'm going to be using this pc mostly for editing videos in premiere. I'll also be capturing gameplay from a xbox 360, and possibly from pc games...

at the moment this build is just under $1300 closer to 1200 after MiR ... I plan on spending an addtional 300$ in a few weeks, getting a second monitor, a 3tb hd, usb 3.0 card, and whatever other little things i may require...

Just wondering if anyone has any advice or comments on this pc... it's alot of money for me, I want to get the best combo i can....
(i'll be honest, i have positive past experience with all the brands that I have selected...)

i also plan on getting a another graphics card (the same model) and doing sli, in a few months.

My opinion: upgrade the CPU to a 4670k for a little extra power for only a miniscule amount more, upgrade the 660 to a 760, lose the liquid cooling and buy a good and vastly cheaper traditional cooler instead, save a bit on the mainboard was well (MSI has a couple of great ones out right now), save a bit on the case (Zalman would be my recommendation), and see if you can't afford a 27 inch display - these are really worth it, if you plan to edit for hours and hours in one session.
