Howdy! 2nd post here, and I'm loving this!
First ever computer build, will be building it for video editing with the Adobe Suite.
I need a little advice on a few parts tho.
CPU: I decided to go with the 3930k 6 core.

Cooling: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009ZN03AA/ref=ox_sc_act_image_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
I will take the fan out and put it in the front of the case. My case comes with 1 front fan, and can have 2. I will put this on the cooler: http://www.amazon.com/Setting-Anti-Stall-Bearing-NF-S12A-FLX/dp/B00BEZKX8Y/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1401141948&sr=1-6&keywords=120mm+noctua

I will upgrade this too 32 gigs, then 64 as I advance.

I think that just about cover it.
So the motherboards. ASUS or the Gigabyte? They are about the same price, and since Gigabyte is easier to put Mavericks on...
Will the speeds be the same tho?
I really wish I could find a motherboard like this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008LTB3QW/ref=wl_it_dp_v_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=247SZKO9DYV3X&coliid=I19HW2KZ9WXJST
It has VGA, DVI, HDMI, and 2 Thunderbolt! Any like this for the LGA 2011?
Also, is cooling going to be good in this case. I plan on having the H80i mounted in the back pushing hot air from the CPU directly out, then having the 2 front fans pushing in the case. Anything I should do to add more cooling if thats not enough?
Is my GPU good? Any recommendations on other ones? Should I get the 4 gig version?
Anything I can do to make this machine faster or better without adding too much to the cost?
Or what can I do to take away cost and still have close to the same performance?
Any good places to get parts cheaper?
Can somebody link me to a build that uses my exact GPU, CPU, and Motherboard?
Thanks guys!
