Hey Guys! Here's a build I did during September last year (2012).

Tell me what you think!

Any ideas on what I should do to improve the build?

PSU: 850W NZXT Hale
GPU: MSI 2GB Nvidia GTX 660TI Pe

Overkill PSU: -1
Stock cooler on unlocked CPU: -1
Low-RPM boot drive: -1

Personally I hate the LEDs but it's a decent build that needs a few improvements. You can add an SSD for a HUGE performance increase in day-to-day tasks and any task that involves accessing the hard drive. For the CPU cooler, I suggest the Enermax ETS-T40-TB, NZXT Havik 140, or Phanteks PH-TC14PE depending on how much you want to spend. The high-wattage PSU is just ruining your efficiency, but not detracting from your performance. The only issue with it is that it's a waste of money.
