    How much this costs without the monitor/mouse/keyboard/mouse pad/other crap (just the crap in the case and the case itself)?

    Very nice :D
    The mobo is very goood but for 250 or so ASROCK got a better one..
    It had the i7 3770k OCed to 7.136Ghz
    It's called ASROCK Z77 OC or something. Just 240$..
    And would've gone with watercooling..

    I would have gone with custom watercooling but it was outside of my budget at the time. Also ROG products are much higher quality than asrock, and that oc was obtained from extreme overclocking (liquid nitrogen cooling) so it would be impossible to have it on an actual desktop pc.

    Again, it's impossible to have a 24/7 pc with that sort of cooling.

    Very VERY nice computer setup. How is that CPU? I run a 2500k and enjoy it. Also that is one massive CPU cooler.

    It's awesomely fast, enough to make me never want to buy an amd cpu. Also the cpu fan is supposed to be the best air cooling out right now, but it would get in the way of a second gpu when I want to get one.

    Beautiful system, I noticed that the 650 watt gold standards are popular amongst folk these days for some reason.
