How is my customization?

What resolution will you be gaming at?

I love nvidia myself, but right now for your money ati is the best performer, thats is all I will say, if its nvidia you want then nvidia it is.

what games do you play?

Here ya go.


What I changed:

For liquid cooling you're best off to go with HailStorm

That being said spending 750$ on LC is a waste if you don't over clock your video
cards, they're just fine with stock cooling in 2 way SLI.

Not 100% sure on this but I'm fairly sure that the monitor you picked doesn't support 1920x1200 resolution. 

I changed your PSU to the Corsair 1k PSU, it has won a fair amount of awards and is a very solid PSU, 1200 watts is unnecessary for 2x SLI.  The max draw on a video card is ~300 watts.

Added in a 256GB SSD for your OS / Games.  No 5k build is complete without a SSD.

Other thoughts... 

Just IMO you should really really consider going with an ATI video card if you're going to order now.  If you can wait I would hold out a few more months for the new NVIDIA cards

now you need to know that GTA 4 will not be maxed out cause it needs more gpu ram, crysis also will probably not max out, you can get highest settings and 2x aa in crysis and have smooth gaming but once you up the aa then its a different story.

if you want to max out GTA 4 and crysis, you might have to wait for the 2GB version of the cards or fermi when it comes out.

1920x1080P or 1900 x 1200 have the same gpu needs, but I belive the monitor he is talking about is a wide screen which makes it 16:10
