Note it's in euros, so about 4200 dollars. This is actually a very well put post and I do appreciate it. I don't think the cooling is a problem, since the case I'm getting will have extra cooling as well. I also don't have any experience with water cooling so I don't know how to set it up...

The 120Hz is important to me. I will be running the games at 100-120 fps, even if I can't use the max settings. The graphical detail in multiplayer has never been an issue for me. My laptop can run Titanfall with high settings, but I still prefer to run it on Low so I can get those smooth frames...

Yes, it is a TN panel. Taken from Asus website: Why is the display TN rather than IPS/PVA/MVA, etc? Not all TN’s are made the same: the premium panel used in the PG278Q is of very high quality. IPS panels (and their derivatives like PVA/MVA etc) are not suitable for a multitude of reasons: 1)...

https://www.asus.com/us/News/xXtX0FNhXQWPrry7 This was my other choice, but I would have to wait a long time for it to be released. Edit: While this monitor would put my setup to whopping 3200€, the G-Sync alone would be worth it, even if it was 1080p. Damn. My whole paycheck is gonna go on...

Z87 doesn't support Haswell refresh? If that's the case, that would be the only reason to change the motherboard. And yes, I'm also getting a case. I don't have a desktop at all atm, which is why I'm so anxious of getting one. I'm currently running Asus ROG G750JW laptop, which, well, is nice...

I'll just throw this in here: Let's say you guys are in my shoes. You want a high end gaming pc with no worries about the budget or any professional needs. What would the components be for you? You can include the new haswell refresh CPU's. And to avoid retarded setups like a 5000€ machine...

Solid info, but all in all, would you be against the motherboard I chose? I am, of course, open to any suggestions as to what would be great with this lineup. Motherboard has always been my weak point in building a PC, since I can't wrap my finger around anything it offers knowing it's gonna be...

Ah, right, Xeon. I guess I'll have to wait for the new chips then. If I read correctly, they are also LGA1150 so I wouldn't even have to change out the motherboard. I actually concluded my buying decision of the 780 Ti based on THAT link you provided. The regular 780 Ti already beats the 290x...

Well, all the components of high end companies are made with overclocking "in mind", but why wouldn't I invest 100€ more for an already OC'd 780 Ti over the regular 780? Even if I'm not going to overclock it, it is still more powerful. This just makes more sense to me. On a 2000€ computer that...

Hey, Finland is a very expensive country, unfortunately. You can pretty much add 200 dollars to your USA price tag to get the Finnish price for that product. So while 2000€ seems expensive, is just reality for me. Good thing you mentioned the new CPU. Didn't realize they were shipping new chips...

My greed over a new PC made me blind to reality. Let's change thing up a little bit. Let's forget 4K gaming and focus on natives like 1080/1440p. I'm pretty the sure the 780 Ti can handle a single monitor of either of these resolutions for years to come. 4K right now is dream that I got too...

Hey guys. The last time I built a desktop was in 2006, so I'm a bit rusty and in dire need of a new PC. My budget is around 2000-3000€ so this desktop will last for years to come and enjoy even future games even at 4K resolutions. So far I've picked the following parts: RAM: 16GB, DDR3...
