Saint is Building a New Computer!
TriDefiance:
Lol, I might have to get an i7 for crazy video editing and rendering.

If you get the 212 cooler make sure to get the 212 Evo as it is designed for socket 2011. Else just get the Intel standard.
You dont need a PSU bigger than 750W
Corsair has some very nice cases, check the 400 or 500
Video, grab a 660 ti. They are the best bang for the buck. they beat out a GTX 580
Careful with some of the lower end X79 mobos. Some do NOT have a USB 3 header. I have a sabertooth.
Ram, anything 1600MHz, it is quad so go for 4x4GB, its cheap and if you get a mobo with 8 you can still easily upgrade.
FYI.. this is my day job.

Holy crap CCsaint10, when I first started reading your post I thought, "Oh... He probably wants to build something similar to mine", that's a monster your planning on building there mate, fair play. Agree with KM on the SSD, done some reading up on this myself and it's too early days for this technology, better off sticking to SATA.
