A good sub-2000$ PC build?

Laptop gamer here, looking to convert with a budget of 2000$, here's what I have so far: Intel i7 4770k http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116901 G.SKILL 16gb Ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231568 EVGA Geforce 780 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130916 Corsair White Mid-Tower http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005E97ZUU/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=124EEMAVW9SK8&coliid=I27W1YYAYZ4HFI 2 HDD's http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148834 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822236339 1000w PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182188 24in Monitor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236153 Note: I don't need a mouse or sound equipment, and was holding back up to 200$ for a corsair mechanical keyboard. My real questions are: what kind of mobo fits best with this setup, what am I missing, and what should I add/change to make this the best machine possible?

  • I take it you're doing editing. And that 1000w PSU isn't necessary.

    • Can you please put this in a pcpartpicker form? Also, you won't need 1000W for your PSU. I'd say Corsair's AX760i or CX750 might be enough. Maybe a Asus Z87-A or Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UDH3 for your mobo? For an SSD, you can't go wrong with a Samsung 840 EVO. [spoiler]Be nice I'm remembering these parts purely from memory![/spoiler]
