I'm building a new rig and just looking to see if anyone else is running the same setup or could just give me some insight on the components.. I'm using a MSI Z77A-GD65 GAMING Motherboard , A Intel I7-3770 Quad-Core CPU, With Corsair Vengeance 16Gb RAM, Running 2 AMD Radeon HD 7950 3 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card, And powered by a Corsair Enthusiast Series TX 850 Watt ATX/EPS Modular 80 PLUS Bronze (TX850M) PSU

I like the build parts, but, I think if I were to put together a system like that, I'd want something slightly better than a Bronze certification for the PSU. For about 30 dollars more at current prices you can get an Xfx Psu that is gold rated. Same build quality, and modular, but Gold instead instead of Bronze.

I'm only saying this because of the higher power draw for this system. I think you'd be better served spending the extra 30 dollars, honestly. If you've already bought the Psu, it's not anywhere near a big deal. Just more of a slight improvement.
