Ewwww Asus 550 Ti.

That card is so ugly.

I would say go to EVGA. :)

Also, I would skip to a 600 series video card, they are close to the same price as 500 series....

GTX 550 Ti -> $130 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121435

GTX 650 -> $110 ($120 Regular) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130827

Hell, the 650 is cheaper anyway. For $20 less, you get twice the CUDA cores, and a card that looks way sleeker. :)

You gonna OC that 3570K? I have various profiles for a stable 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8 and 4.9 for mine right now.

lolz The video card will be last and I will get a good GeForce GTX card that I can afford under 200$ at that time. Asus, MSI and EVGA are the brands that I am willing to buy. I would prefer something to match my other parts.

Yes, overclocking is a must. I wouldn't mind seeing you're profiles. I have watched some videos and have checked out a few pc forums.

I will have around 350$ saved up by Black Friday and Cyber Monday. I'm going to buy what I can at the lowest prices and maybe do upgrades then as well. xD

-Thanks

I have the white version of the 410 and I love it.

If you want to add some lighting to it, I recommend this (I picked the blue one since your case has blue on it, but they have a few other colors)

http://www.nzxt.com/..._led_kit_-_blue

or this (fully customizable colors)

And their sleeved extensions are pretty awesome too. They only offer the starter kit in black, but you can get some of the cables in black, white, or red.

Here's mine with the blue sleeved LED kit and the white sleeved extensions.

i got the full tower phantom case. white with black trimming cuz i wasn't sure if the red was going to match the other red i'm going to have in my white/maroon theme. very nice case .

I concur, it's always fun to bust out that word; all I need now is a pipe. You can't really go wrong with any colors. They have a lot, would be nice if they had some virtual program to select your pc parts to put inside. That way you can demo your build.

I like that very much, I shall add some of these to my purchase list for certain. Same setup pretty much, white cables/blue led. You have a nice setup as well.

Also I plan on fan whoring it up for no real reason, still don't know if I will stick with NZXT fans or go with Corsair since I have a good theme going on with them.

Mine has all NZXT fans, then again I got the entire rig straight from NZXT last year (giveaway :)), so it has their sleeved LEDs, extensions, PSU, and fans. I like my stuff to match anyway.

I wish I could take credit for the build, but I didn't build it :(. It's pretty darn close to what I was going to do anyway.
