What are the games you building it for?

There are some items really you do not need till that extent.

Hey bro

It's going to be for Dragon Age, Skyrim, COH2, Simcity, D3, BF4, SC2.

I intend to play them on the highest setting possible. Is it wise to watercool the GPU?

And I tend to open many programs and tabs, so I thought of just getting 16GB RAMs since the mobo can only support up to 16GB.

I have doubts over the Mobo and PSU i should choose.
