Yeah, I had some issues with the GPU power cables. They stick out a fair bit and touch the side panel when I close it. Do people usually use 90 degree GPU power connectors? Or do they just bend the cable down?

it looks beautiful, you still need to change that CPU cooler if you want to overclock your CPU or avoid overheating issues!

 

still a solid build! ;)

Waiting on a CPU cooler and Hard Drive? Otherwise, looks great. Shoot for SLI in the future :P

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

Nice build  :D How is the GPU, I'm thinking about getting a MSI card, what is the sound like

 I'm not sure whether it is quiet compared to others but for me it is quite quiet. I get around 110 FPS on BF3 on ultra on operation metro but on larger maps like damavand peak it dropped down to 60-70 fps average and I've yet to see the temperature of the GPU go past 75 degrees celcius. Although when I took temperature readings I hadn't been playing for very long. If you want me to I can let you know the temps of the card after playing for about an hour or so on a game.

By the way I just edited my previous post to you. It now says what FPS I got on what map on BF3.

Ok, thanks! 

I played BF3 for about half an hour on Ultra and the temperature of my GPU was around 70 - 76 degrees celcius.

That's a pretty nice build.

 

I would have gotten a better case, but yours looks fine. Cases aren't really looked at while you use it so mine isn't too good either :P.

 

I prefer cases that have cooling inside them so I can play for longer periods of time without it overheating.
