Anyways let me know what you guys think about this system It seems like a good deal to me I just wanna get a second opinion on the matter.

Not as bad as some prebuilt systems. It's overpriced, as they always are.

It's an mATX board, so you only get 1 extra PCIe slot. The PSU is small and won't support SLI. The case is sleek and made for looks, not airflow. If you get it, keep an eye on your temps.
