Hey ppl, please sanity check my build below; it's mainly for video editing, no overclocking, no sli and will run win 7 pro.
CPU: 2 x E5-2660 (own)
MOBO between:
I had considered ASUS EEB form factor, but I'm liking my case selection that's EATX.
And considered: Supermicro X9DAE, non-ecc memory config is kind of weird in the manual
RAM: 8 to 16 dimms equaling 64gb
GPU: GTX 660 Ti
HDD: ~4
Fans/Heatsink: closed loop like:
Corsair H80i

Case: Corsair Obsidian 800D

PSU: KingWin 1000w

I'm up for all suggestions, but mainly looking for a good PSU and I already own the CPUs.
Thanks! =)
