Im still planning on adding another 2 sticks of ram to get 16 gigs on my build. Im also going to grab a new gpu but thats all I could afford at the time. Also the PSU is a Thermaltake 550w 80+ Bronze. Do you guys think it was good for the price?

TOTAL: $550

Nice build. GPU could be better but for the price it is ok. Have you overclocked your CPU yet?

Looks to be a Hyper 212 EVO.

Nice build. Not how I would've done it, but it's good. 4.4GHz on that board is quite good.

How did you get 4.4GHz, I have the GA-97A-DS3P and I'm limited to 4GHz?
