Looks like a decent kit. Not big on the case but the rest looks ok. I don't know the currency so can't say whether or not the value is good.

[Mekketom]

its about 1600 usd.

I don't read Norwegian.  I hear they speak it in Minnesota, so maybe Rugger could translate.

 

I don't see anything about cooling.  It's a "K" processor, and a kick ass one at that, but you need something more than just stock cooling to overclock any processor.  A Corsair self-contained water cooler system is fine; others lay their balls out on the table and put in tubes and pumps and all that bullshit till it looks like NASA built the thing.  I cannot be bothered to that degree, so that's why I suggest the Corsair units.

 

The memory is CAS 9.  Is there better (faster) memory out there?  Just posing the question, not doing the research.

OH! and for the Love of God!!!!  NO GREEN HARD DRIVES!      Caviar BLACK 7200RPM 

[Mekketom]

To late.. lol..  i can always send back the xtra HD. (whats wrong with that)?  all kits comes with a sealed water cooling system..  should i upgrade the memory?

Nice one but IMHO definitely over sized.

There is no game that uses all of this resources at the moment.
I bet one of this components will die before there is ONE game out there that does.

My rig is a Core2Quad, 4 GB RAM and a nVidia GTX 560 GT from Gainward.

Average
- CPU usage is 50% max;
- Memory usage 2GB

 

Btw the 4770k (3,5 GHz) is not the fastest CPU of this family. The 3930K (3,2 GHz) has way better benchmark results:

[PingLo]

Yes we do, I play games on my 7 year old Mac still, never a virus or a driver issue.

[codpiece]

My mac is 7 yo also. Any problems I have I had I created myself. Actually I had one problem in all those years I did not create, but it was easily fixed.
