Hey guys, will this build work for FCPX?

i7 3770
GA-Z77-DS3H
16GB Corsair Vengeance Blue 1600MHz
OCZ Agility 3 120GB SATA 3, 525mb read, 500mb write
Corsair Carbide 300R
Corsair CX430 Watt PSU

I am going to use it for Final Cut Pro X, iWeb, iMovie, GarageBand, Photoshop CS6, After Effects CS6, Sony Vegas 10, Cinema 4D R13, and XCode 4. I hope to get Mountain Lion running on it :)

My budget is at 5500 DKK, and I am buying parts off of Komplett.dk, and the link above is the shoppinglist. I am also going to buy an Apple wired keyboard so, that is why the DVD drive isn't on the shoppinglist. I might purchase a graphics card in the future. Maybe if I can sell some stuff, I am going to buy a second HDD, or maybe an external one for editing, as it isn't good to read and write on the same disk while editing.

Thank you so very much in advance :)
 
The parts are ok.;)
 
Great! Now, I have another question: I was thinking about building the same machine as this guy, minus the watercooling and the i5: http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-...-pro-i5-3570k-intel-hd4000-mountain-lion.html

A tiny bit more expensive, but the build seems extremely straightforward and easy, maybe even easier than the z77 board I originally chose. I made a new shoppinglist, it's a teeny bit more expensive, but if it's hassle free, I am going to drop the money for it:

ASUS P8Z77-M Pro
16GB Corsair Vengeance Blue 1600MHz

Would that maybe work?
 
A build with the GA-Z77-DS3H and ASUS P8Z77-M Pro are both straight forward. They both work following the guide.
