Looks really solid, only thing I would suggest would be to switch the power supply for an EVGA G2 750 PSU for more growing room. :)

you really think i need 750 watts?

 

Probably dont "Need" 750Watts but its good to have room to upgrade down the line

 

 what about the EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 650W

 

Apparently the NEX series arent the best. @STRMfrmXMN might be able to help with PSU selection :)

What PSU do you recommend?

If the NEX was something you were looking at go for any of the EVGA PSUs I listed above as the GS and B2 should be available at around that price.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
