No full keyboard comes close to how comfortable the Nostromo. I've tried other single handed gamepads but they all suck, especially the G13. The Nostromo is the only one that is truly ergonomic to properly fit your hand. The d-pad is also very useful for extra binds. On a normal keyboard your thumb does nothing except press the spacebar. The the Nostromo I give my thumb 5 buttons to press instead of just 1. The Nostromo is not a mechanical but it does use that Hypersponse tech from Razer. Much more responsive then my G15, but again I don't use my G15 except for typing.

I bought the SSD a little bit back when SSDs were kinda expensive, and just planned on having it for a boot drive and 1 or 2 games. However, currently, classes are in session so I don't have much time for gaming, but once I have time to play more, I will need more space and then I might get a bigger SSD, like a 240gb drive.
EDIT: I am surprised that Deltrus hasn't made a comment about the i7 3770k... :P

4+1 phases is fine, even for overclocking; Anything beyond 8+2 is superfluous
At least in the P8P67,z68 series, ASUS limited OC capabilities by removing LLC and manual vcore settings on their 4+1 phase motherboards. Don't know about the z77 but I'd stay away.
Iirc we also had someone on this board blowing up the capacitors on a 4+1 phase mobo while attempting a higher overclock. Granted it was sandy-b.
