re: PC Discussion - Gaming, Performance and Enthusiasts

I actually did consider the switch 810, but I favored the brushed aluminum look of the Corsair cases. It does have a pretty good design inside though.

I want to have this thing working by the end of the first week of july for COH2 :P, so I don't want to wait on anything to come out.

This is the rest of the build:

With a 1440p monitor and second 7970 coming in the first 2 or so months.
IlikeLSU2 and a few others helped me with it; main things I changed since then are ram (same specs, different brand,for purely color reasons, and 5$ difference) and PS (might step up to the 1000w EVGA or corsair AX860i, those are the completely modular options at the price)

(I'm kinda using warmachine from marvel comics as my theme, so I'm trying to stick with black and silver colors with a tad bit of dark blue accent. I know, kinda stupid and nerdy; but frick you )

I'm not even a warmachine fan really, I just had "The War Machine" as the title to my excel spreadsheet I'm using to plan this build, and then when I was trying to select colors fo the sleeving, I googled war machine, and was like; thats pefect
