That is...sexy. Do you mind me asking how much it cost? I'm looking to make a new desktop sometime this Summer and the specs on there look reasonably good.

Which power supply did you go with and would you consider a SSD?

Replace the stock cpu heatsink! More importantly though: enjoy your build! A bit too flashy for my taste but cool stickers.

In all honosty an SSD is probably the way to go from what I've heard, just not to familiar with them myself. I want to say I spent around 1300 after it was all said and done, and I bought my parts at Fry's.

But yea I forgot to mention the psu is a rocketfish 550 that I recycled from my old PC.
