PSU Overkill FTW!!!

 

I'm guessing a second 780 is in your future?

[alexdenseje7]

What do you need 1300 Watt for?

[MegaDave91]

You went absolutely insanely overkill on the PSU, but nice build!

[NUFCThomas]

you should of downgraded that PSU and upgraded the cooler, except that very nice options

[Maslofski]

im asuming youre getting 2 more 780s with that PSU

I got the PSU for $110 brand new off of ebay, so I figured I'd go for it haha! Another GTX 780 is definitely in the works. I was getting mixed opinions about an h100i fitting in the case, so I'd decided to play it safe.

Haha I was going to, but I liked the look of the h75 better. To each his own I guess. Thanks for the input!

whit the fractal case you can move the HDD cage back giving you space to mount a rad in the front 

or you could remove it completely and mount that SSD on the back of the motherboard whit Velcro

nice build though   

[aschultz100]

Yes! That's definitely in the works as well. I would love to get that second hdd cage out of there!

Great build, but that PSU is complete overkill... You could easily run 3-4 GTX780s with that...

[asusfan]

very clean and nice build there. good job done..

 

might look cool / getto  / different if you did use the red pci-e power cable that comes with the psu for the graphics card power all the way. and then add some lighting and get some more pics of night shots etc.

 

like everyone else says a big psu unless you intend to go sli in the future.

Dat overkill psu is great  Nice build overall

[mikeeginger]

PSU is waaaay over kill and please get a

black pcb motherboard
