6/10 (that's an 8 in 4-10 school scale)

You lost points for all that steelseries crap and storage. And stock cooler

Did you want constructive feedback or just rating?

6½

No aftermarker cooler, slow SSD & too much RAM for gaming!

6/10 Storage and Screen ruined it.

I would give it 6/10

if you changed:

OCZ ssd to a crucial m4 128gb ssd
went down to 8gb ram
and threw in a noctua NH-D14 cpu cooler, then you would have a solid 9/10

Absolutely!

Thanks for the feedback, people! I think i'll go get myself a cooler pretty soon. And btw. Too much RAM for gaming?

There is no such thing as too much RAM. However, i don't think you'll ever get to use that amount. Atleast not for the coming 2 years.

6/10.

• 16GB RAM is arguably overkill; 8GB enough.
• Power supply overkill for a single 670.
• Not sure if that is a reference 670, but if it is I'd knock another point off the score. The Gigabyte Windforce is however a superb choice.
• No fan of Agility 3 or Seagate. I'd rather see a Samsung 830 and a Spinpoint F3 or even better, a Western Digital Caviar: Black.
• No aftermarket cooling solution. I'd love to see a H80 or a NH-D14 in that build.
• If I was to go for a fast gaming monitor, I'd probably pick the BenQ XL2420T instead.
• Mouse is good, keyboard is alright, headset is fairly mediocre.

I'm being pretty harsh perhaps, but I'm nit-picking. It's overall a good build and to be honest you could have done a lot worse.
