I want to get some thoughts on a Gaming PC build.. Yes this is built from CyberPowerPC. I gave the run down of the core parts with the price listed. I already have a HDD and SSD to put into the system. Any ideas on a similar build, home built or otherwise? (I am firm on the GTX 780.) Unless I can build a similar system for a decent bit cheaper, or a much better system for the same price, I'll probably stick with ordering it as I don't have as much time as I would like to devote to building the system myself. Budget is about $1400.
