    What do you guys think:

    Core i7 2600k 3.4ghz (overclocked to 4.2ghz easily with voltage on auto [about 1.3]) (going to overclock to 4.8, maybe 5.2)

    Corsair H70 water cooling system

    MSI p67-g43 or something like that motherboard

    Western Digital 1tb Caviar Black hard drive

    And a EVGA GTX460 superclocked that is garbage!!! The software drivers for it keep crashing whenever I use anything that has to do with the video card at all.
    I am going to return it for a evga gtx560 for an extra 50 dorra. ;D

    aaaand yeah that's all the stuff I upgraded yesturday i likes it

    That is gonna be one bad ass rig, man. Congrats on the purchases. Now comes the fun part- cutting up and squeezing the blood out of your hands as you assemble it all together :D Unless you have a good size tower of course. I just installed a huge 600W PS into my PC and it took all the logistics I had in order to get those cables in there neatly so I could then fit my video card in there. Big pain in the ass.

    Oh yeah, putting it together is totally the best part. :D

    I only have a Antec 900. ;~; it is tiiiiiny tiny case especially with the all-in-one cooler, I had to take out the side-panel where the extra fan goes and now there is a huge hole in the side of my case. :eek:
