Great Build!

 

I hope you've cleaned up the cables a little bit. It's a little bit messy :P

Love the build, those cable just need to be tidied up a little bit, Just me personally i would of gone with a more professional looking graphics card like the EVGA GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB Superclocked but that is just my own personal opinion.
