the case? sucks - Much better http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119225 or even http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...%20z9% 20plus (the zalman case is spacious and has a loty of fans and place for more and only $59. Compare to the chose your choice makes this one look like a Rolls Royce)

As for the cpu it's fine but throw in a Corsair Cooling Hydro H100 or even the H110

I had the Hyper X SSD in the box I built around Christmas time and it was just as fast as the Corsair Force GT I had before that... And it's cheaper, so what the hell.... not sure how long they last, though. The Force GT lasted a year without a problem.

I really fucked up on that case. It didn't have any reviews but I found the same exact case here http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811148062 and apparently it's going to have a DOA PSU and be extreme trash. Sigh.

What's so much better about that board? I always use to use ASUS and then I had problems with several of their boards and said fuck it... the one I got is Z77 and solid caps and seems pretty solid looking, I guess. It's not going to let some moron crossfire the cards for gaming and all of that bullshit, but I don't play games
