Hello!

For your RAM, it truly won't matter which you choose, its almost entirely up to personal preference/price. Hyperx and Vengeance are both solid RAM, and either way you go you will not see any performance increase over the other.

As for the cards, they are *nearly* identical. The Gainward has a 3mhz boost clock advantage, but that is completely insignificant beyond the number. I would go with the Zotac merely because it is cheaper.

Seagate Barracuda drives are faster than Caviar Blue drives, although Caviar Blue drives aren't bad by any means. If you trust WD more than Seagate, go with the Blue, or just go for whichever is cheaper.

The XFX Pro series should be of higher quality parts, but the Corsair PSU is an excellent...

The XFX Pro series should be of higher quality parts, but the Corsair PSU is an excellent supply itself. I would recommend the XFX over Corsair CX supplies, although I would probably recommend Corsair AX/TX over the XFX Pro.

Cases are completely up to personal preference. Personally, I like Corsair cases and I would go with the Corsair, but the Cooler Master is cheaper. Once again, choose whichever you find more cosmetically appealing.

Hope this helped!

Thank you! This is what I think:

1) Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 1600MHz 16GB

2) Very close. I don't think there is much of a difference, but I hear Zotac to be a more popular brand.

3) CORSAIR CX600M 600W, this says it is modular, or partly modular.

4) Very close. I don't think there is much of a difference. Most people here like Western Digital more.

5) Which one looks better? :p Pick the one you like to look at.
