Was gonna go all out on my build but had to budget down due to funding (had to save for holiday and music festivaling) but i am planning on upgrading or rebuilding toward the end of the year. I will be getting water cooling (which i had originally planned) because, like yourself, i like to overclock. Im just too restricted to how much a can OC atm due to lack of cooling :cry:

This build is a year old now, still pretty good for its age!

I'm thinking about upgrading the graphics cards but there doesn't appear to be any good ones out right now. I mean obviously the Titan is a monster but it's priced ridiculously I would feel like I was being robbed by NVIDIA paying those prices.

Not fast enough, my dual GTX 480's would almost be as fast as 660's in games. It would be more like a side grade.

If I was going to upgrade I'd have to get probably two GTX 680 4GB's but I'm not going to do that, I'll wait for NVIDIA's next cards the GTX 780 I guess.
