I would have changed a few things, for a single gpu system to be honest I would go with ode 1, lot less cheaper.

but what res you gonna be gaming at?

you gonna want a bigger ssd, instead of the loud and uneeded fan upgrade you should have gone with the a70 cooler. the fan controller is a waste of your money, it won't control all fans and its temps are not accurate, you should ahve spent that money, on a case with better airflow and better cpu cooler.

If I'm not mistaken your config cost you around $2,344

look at this its much better, bigger case with much better airflow, much much better psu, bigger more reliable ssd, and better cpu cooler and higher oc:

Here you go Ticket# 618601 --- $2,398 (To see this build click here)

now this one comes with one big red led fan upfront, look like you like blue so what you do is ask DS to use the haf x blue version instead of the one listed in this build.
