I spent about five hundred more than I usually would. but drives are stupidly expensive right now, and i decided to go top end on case/power supply.

A power supply has been the only thing I've ever had go out on me besides a couple fans and a bad streak of luck with GPUS. I can't really do anything about the fans or GPUs but I decided to spend 150 on a case/power supply. I have never gone super cheap on them, but I don't go with top of the line stuff either.

The only thing I dislike so far is the case is massive. I didn't realize it would be so big. I'm used to working with small ones... WHICH I'M SUPER GOOD AT BTW

hahah every time I build one which is about every other year my wife swears she won't let me build another. luckily this year all my parts worked right out of the box(meaning I didn't break any of them.)

However, the windows 7 install is stupid. Just FYI.
