Additional Comments: Would like to go for reliability and power. I've put together this build but I'm sure it could be improved (again, I already own the hdd and gfx card but plan on upgrading both whenever I feel them slowing me down). This is the first system I'm putting together, so excuse me if I'm way off in some way.
