Hello - the power supply seems a bit strong to me, 850W would be enough I think, even if you are planning SLI. The new GTX1080s are relatively humane in terms of power consumption. The case is just a bit too much plastic, I prefer aluminium and recently got the Phanteks Enthoo Primo (black/red), a really chic and noble part, looks less playful and very high quality, also available in white! But all in all it looks good, if there is still budget, I would go for the ASUS Rampage V Edition 10 as motherboard, resp. I will afford it in connection with the i7 6850 and also upgrade it soon...

In principle, I would say yes. However, I would consider the following things: 1. the thermal paste. Do you plan to head the CPU? I guess not. Then you don't need this WLP. An Arctic Silver 5, for example, will do just fine. Liquid metal is very tricky anyway, I really wouldn't use it as a normal WLP. 2ND PSU. If it's in there, take a power supply unit with 1000 or more watts. 3. the mainboard. Do you plan to overclock? If so, and if the price is right, go for the Asus RAMPAGE V Edition 10. You'll have more fun with it... ;) Hth!
