How does it look overall?

I might be looking for cheaper alternatives or sales on these parts but I want to make sure that I am getting good solid parts from respectable companies such as Corsair.

I'm looking for a good over all machine that can handle well.... everything. This would mean some photoshop here and there, a game once and a while, and just the normal internet browsing, school, and business work.

And yes I know that the ROG board is a little over board lol, going to change that for something cheaper, just not sure yet. Probably something ASUS though.

If you were planning to upgrade to Windows 10 you can buy Windows 7 Home Premium and get some extra cash if you build this before July 29th 2016.

Awesome, thanks guys! Joegeddon I'll defintely think about doing that then since I was planning to upgrade to Windows 10! Any ideas for a gpu with similar perfomance but a little cheaper in price?

Just checked and noticed that Windows 8 is cheaper than Windows 7. Probably a sale :)

Not exactly, but I have seen Blue-ray disk versions of movies and stuff cheaper than the dvd version so I put it in just in case(Might just save money from the blue-ray disks instead of dvd).

Nice, I see you would most likely be a gamer or editor?
