As with most here, I'd say build your own. On the other hand I've had two CyberPowers as well and both are still going strong.

As for the case, I wouldn't get a house brand. Instead, something like the Fractal or the Corsair Carbide. That's too much high end hardware to put in a cheap case.

Same goes for the power supply. Get a name brand like Corsair or ThermalTake (maybe CoolerMaster).

If this is for gaming, you're not gaining anything by getting a hexa core plus X79 mobo. A 4770K plus a good Z87 mobo (not the Sabertooth...) will work as well and save a lot of money (to offset the cost of getting a quality case, PSU, and SSD).



Why all the hard drives and no SSD? Again with a system like this that's all out of balance. Change out the boot drive to a 250GB or so Intel or Samsung 840 Evo. Can put a lot of games on there as well so the levels load fast. Can put media on the HDDs.

Also go with a 300mbs wireless card if you HAVE to go wireless.
