This is a nice build, but you are spending a lot of money where it isn't needed. Take the 900D. It's a great case but do you understand jut how big it is? I would recommend a Define R4 or if you want a full tower, get one of the following;
NZXT Switch 810
Fractal Design XL R2
Cooler Master HAF X
1200W PSU is a bit overkill, I would recommend a solid 800W/850W and save a bit of money there.
Do you really need two optical drives?
and are you really running the 4770K on a standard cooler? Get a H100i or the NZXK Kraken X60

Hey,

Yeah I Just Want To Have The Two Optical Drives, It Gives Me More Options.

The Power Supply Is Fine But For The Cooling Which Do You Think Is The Best One To Buy?

Also The Case I Am Alright With, I Just Need To Put Lights Or Something In It As Well As Fans.\

Thanks

Both coolers work equally as good, some people swear that the Kraken is best, and some people swear that the H100i is better.

I would still advise switching out the case because there is no point having a 900D with no custom watercooling. It just looks stupid unless full of radiators, reservoirs and tubing. Not only that, but it is a lot of money for a case which won't be used to it's full potential.

900D = stupid for consumers to buy.

1200 WATT PSU = Way to overkill for this build, a nice 650 will do the exact same job.

27" 1080p Monitor = You can get a way better 24" for less. anything above 24" shouldn't be allowed 1080p. Get a 1440p monitor with the money saved from the PSU.

Corsair M65 = Get a Razer Deathadder 2013 as it is much much much better.

Corsair K50 = Get a CM Storm Quickfire TK or a CM Storm Quickfire Rapid.

For cooling get a Phanteks PH-TC14_PE or a be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3.

Hey Thanks Guys,

I Am Definitely Going To Put A Ton Of Cooling Systems And Such In The Computer Because I Don't Want It To Overheat Easily.

Why Do You Think The 900D Case Is Stupid To Buy?

Don't bother with that case and listen to us.

For a case a H440 or a Fractal Design XL R2 would be perfect they both have excellent cooling and room for radiatiors

Alright,

I Will Stay Away From The 900D Case If You Guys Think It Won't Work Well.

Is Everything Else Good Though?

A simple Corsair H100 will do the trick. The 900D is so massive, i think it will be hard to use all the space available. The only way its going to be any use to you is if you have a full custom water cooling system with 3/4 GPU's all watercooled

Honestly, the case is massive
