Also if you are upgrading you might want to think about an SSD and also color seems fine and I'm pretty sure Paul from Newegg has that case and it looks pretty sweet

Sorry, i already have a M500 240Gb ssd

i say keep your i7, drop down to a 770 instead of 780, unless you have a res higher than 1080p and not get the cable braids...

Will probably upgrade to higher than 1080 within a year
