Yeah... Too many options! You should at least hold off until Haswell and GTX 7xx come out in like 3 weeks or so. 

4.7 Ghz with a Cooler Master Hyper 212!?
 
Heres mine
Corsair 400r, i7 3770k to 4.2 Ghz with a Cooler Master Hyper 212, Gigabyte z77 Ud-5h, GTX 670, OCZ Vertex 4 128 gb ssd, Corsair tx 650 m
 
Running this as a hackintosh!

I'm the tech support guy in the house, and most of my family has no idea how technology works. So, I think you can guess some of the things that I've had to deal with.  :D

When in doubt, C4.  :D

Amazon and Newegg!

Cool! Now crossfire can actually become a viable option for people.

Yeah, Linus used a 550w PSU in his build guide with an i7 4770k and a GTX 780, so you don't even need that much. Get a high quality, lower wattage power supply, unless you plan to be doing some serious upgrading in the future. 

If you don't like Apple's pricing, why dont you just build a hackintosh? 

This build looks amazing. Im looking forward to what it will look like when its done!

You can easily get away with onboard graphics. Something like an AMD apu or Intel with onboard graphics. 

When in doubt, C4.  :D

Pick a build log and ask for the creator to come on to the stream to talk about it, then show pictures of the build log on the stream and let the guy tell stuff about it.

Don't do 460 SLI, the 7950 is a great choice, and a 2500k will definitely not bottleneck the GPU. The best thing I would do if I were you would be to go on Linus' channel and search benchmark showdown. You will see a variety of cards at a variety of pricepoints, and how they perform in popular titles. You can make your decision from there, but I bet you will find the 7950 is a great price to performance ratio, and will work well for you.

Yeah, thats the unfortunate thing. For people like Tom who actually review stuff properly, and give their own opinion, they will not be sent stuff again. So, it gives others an incentive to give a positive review, even if the product is mediocre at best. I commend him for going on with the review, even though he knows he will most likely not be sent anything again. 

If you have the budget, go for the GTX 770. As a comparison, the 770 essentially replaces the 680, and the 760 replaces the 660ti. You will definitely get better performance with the 770. 

Looks great! With having the 900d, I think you kind of have to run tubing behind the motherboard tray. 

I agree :D. PS: Edward great pictures!!! :D

Looks great! People should comment on mine too... The link to my flikr account is in my signature.
