    All comes down to how much you want to spend on each, frankly, the monitor is something to consider, on both type, size, and resolution.

    For SSD though, I would say Samsung 830 or Crucial m4.
    Keyboard? Corsair K60 or K90 is a good investment.

    Drunken, let me know how that NZXT Switch 810 works out for you. I found a website that sells them for about 30 bucks less then NCIX here in Canada, 160 dollars is still steep but cheap for a water cooling capable case compared to some of the other large cases out there that don't offer as much space or cooling even for air users.

    How much did that run you?

    My estimate is around 2.5 grand. Maybe a bit more. Very jealous, nice setup you have there. Going by those specs, your primary game is minesweeper or solitaire?

    That is going to look really slick.

    That Deltrus really manages to get everywhere doesn't he?

    The Extreme4 looks so small in that case, although that is probably the white paint's fault.

    How did you get the CPU power connector behind the board?? Im using the 850 watt version and i just cant get it to go behind to board, cable seems to be to short.

    Did you use some extension? Or maybe i should look at it again.

    Im using a corsair 500, p67 extreme 4, doubt that makes all the difference tho

    Try turning the power supply the other way around. My 8pin CPU power didn't quite reach either until I did that (I could probably have forced it to go, but I'm no big fan of forcing stuff to work).

    You win the internet.

    You filled the H60 with that water bottle, right?

    Get lit.

    I'm going to build a shiny new Haswell based rig next summer when SSDs are hopefully 25% cheaper or so.

    I cant really turn it around, only way i see it doable is pointing the fan towards the inside. Which im not gonna do.

    The extreme4 is actually a little bit smaller than a regular ATX.
