Alright, so I built my first epic system over two years ago and it finally crapped out on me, so I decided it's time to completely upgrade. If you'd be so kind as to take a look and give me your thoughts and opinions that would be great! I am running a dual monitor 1080P set up, and will use this mostly for gaming and graphic design.
To start I am going to get the NZXT Phantom case (I can't believe how sexy this thing is ):

Gonna put in the I-5 3570 CPU:

Cooled with the Corsair H-100:

Coupled with the ASUS P8Z77-V PRO:

For RAM I am going to be using some G-Skill 1600 DDR3:

For hard drives I am using one SSD and a 1TB 7200 RPM drive:

For disk drive I wanted to be able to burn Blu-Rays so I picked out the LG drive:

For my gaming pleasure I decided to cough up the little extra cash and get the GTX 670:

And to power all of this I will be a 1000W beast:

So there you have it - my $1700 rig I plan to purchase this weekend/next week. So please I would love to hear some feedback and maybe some alternative suggestions!
