PSU?

Also, post some pictures if you can to see the build and what the cable management looks like.

oh good point on the psu. I don't care all that much on how the cables look personally, as long as I can navigate through.

Improves air flow and looks so much nicer. Well worth taking the extra 10 minutes and routing the cables through the back and behind the MOBO tray. It saddens me when I see a 2500k / 670 rig with a Antec 1100 for example and cables everywhere.

I got an antec 750w green series and for who wanted to know the whole build ran me about $1680 and I'll post some pictures up tomarrow as I'm going to bed now.

Looks good, except the case. HAF 922 is simply not a the right choice in that price range also has terrible cable management (don't pretend that you don't care)

inb4: cooler master fanboys..
