CM Storm Stryker
EVGA Z77 FTW
i5 3570K @4.6GHz on 1.3 volts
Noctua NH-D14
Patriot Viper Extreme @ 2133MHz on 1.65 volts
EVGA GTX 680 FTW 4GB stock clocks
OCZ Vertex 3 120GB boot drive

Welcome to the forums. You need to sort out your cables

 

[SeekaX]

[mastercrim]

nice specs just fix the messy cables. how do you like the evga mobo?

 

[Bruteforce]

Love the EVGA mobo, OC'ing was very easy, went to 4.4 np at 1.2 volts, 4.6 blue screened on 1.2, moved to 1.3 and been stable at 4.6 ever since.

Cable's have been sorted everyone

Ooft, poor choice with the power supply and SSD.

Other than that it looks good!

80 gold rating from PC power and Cooling with a 5 year warranty?

nice rig and good update! I don't know, PPC have always been a top brand in power supplies for as long as I can remember. Years ago, I dreamed of owning one but there's so many other brands now that are just as good and cause of that there popularity has fallen but I don't think their quality has.

PCP&P used to be one of the very best (and equally expensive) brands. The issue I think most have with them (certainly myself) is their completely whacko custom connectors and designs for the cabling. I doubt you'll have performance issues, I guess it's a matter of taste more than anything else bud.

Yea my only issue with the PSU is that the connectors are chrome, if they were a matte black, or even matte silver it wouldn't stand out so much. The color scheme other wise matches the storm stryker just perfectly.

Cable management looks better now although you could still make it look a bit cleaner if you wanted to!

That PSU looks well nice in there. I'd never heard of the brand until a couple of days ago, they seem to be okay?

They've had bulletproof PSU's for years, the only real complaint I have was already mentioned, those shiny custom connectors.
