I see some wrong info here. Firstly Cat 5e and Cat 6 are rated for 1 Gbps up to 100 Meters or 320 Feet or so. My guess is a device in the chain has 10/100 Ethernet ports, either the router or TV. 

I should hold back the hype for Threadripper. EPYC will be epic. Just imagine the possibilities, it will be like the good old days of 1366. Dual-socket, 32cores per socket, BCLK overclockable... Awaiting the EPYC SR2

This^^
I have the same UPS and definitely worth the money. APC, Cyberpower and tripp lite will give you all around the same performance around this $150-$200 mark. Again with the higher Wattage/VA rating the better. Especially if you are going to push it near 50-60% of its wattage all the time.I prefer cyberpowers PC application over APCs but again its all up to you.

Mushkin made the first SSD i ever bought. Its actually still running 5 years later. 60GB Mushkin Callisto

Its a crying shame that anything can cripple a $650 dollar video card. For that kinda money it should play everything out now and everything out for the next year at max settings.
And i agree, my 5970 taught me you can never have enough vram, That card is still beast today (5 teraflops, suck it consoles! its almost 4 years old) but insanely crippled by its 1 gb of vram.

So the card is up and running in the system. I've had exams for school all this week so no time to put the waterblock on. During study times though i did get some benchmarking/overclocking in. I can get it steady at 1175 Core with 1.2V but anything above that and the driver crashes. Not bad considering it comes stock at 863.
Some shots in the case as it stands now.

Highest clock of the day.

Never overkill, always room for expansion!
 
Nice cable management and good part selection!
