You will be pleased with that build. I have the same SSD's and mobo. I use an i5 2500k though. But my GPU's are dual 5870s, but even 1 handles any game out right now just fine.

Haha y'all brought up a lot of good points. So, I've pulled my head out of the clouds and made more of a realistic rig (for my actual financial situation). While the original post would've been sexy to actually build and play own I don't need THAT much power.

Dual Monitors can come later and the case choice was based solely on cosmetics. I really like the look of the HAF series which is why I went with that case vs a much more simplistic case. Either way I'm going to be satisfied and upgrading is easier then flat out building top of the line like I had originally intended.

Forgot to mention I'll be tweaking the card at some point to perform at 6970 level.

I would up your HDD to an SSD. The difference is unbelievable. If your just gonna run League and a few other games, a 128 would work and that's 200 dollars. 100% worth it IMO.

Once you got used to working with two monitors you will never ever want to go back, believe me- it is just that good!

I was thinking of throwing in a SSD along with the HDD. Mainly for my OS, LoL, possibly DIII, Skyrim, etc.

I REALLY REALLY like working with a dual monitor set up so I may end up picking up another monitor. It's just so hand to have an extra monitor.

The second one looks way better. You'll save a lot of money that way.

Yea, like I told one of my co-workers today $2500 didn't sound like much when I first put that build together and it actually sunk in and I was like oh **** no lol.

Case by itself makes no noice :D. Its either the coolers he installed or coolers that came with the case, or maybe any other cooler on graphics/power supply/processor,...

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
