OK so I think it would be really cool to build a monster Hadron Hydro system with the best components that will fit, and I want to come up with a parts list. I have removed the CPU and GPU from the list as I have them already.
1x Hadron Hydro-$210
1x Z87 Stinger-$230
1x EVGA WC Kit-$180
1x GTX TITAN Hydro Copper Block-$170  
1x Hadron Slim Optical Drive-$40 
1x Samsung 840 EVO 1TB (Data Drive)-$600
1x Samsung 840 PRO 128GB (Boot Drive)-$125
1x Windows 8 Pro


TOTAL: $1755 (probably a few hundred less buying off of eBay)

Needed:
2x 8GB sticks RAM 2400MHz, 2666MHz? (matching color)

I will most likely do this if I have the money, and I'll do a build log of course ;) Any suggestions on parts?

Ah that's true it's a great card. I have the TITAN on there just because I already own one :P I'll change it though as that would be more EVGA!

Oh that sucks :( Thanks though! I'll change it again. Anyone have any ideas for RAM?

If you wanna record 30+ FPS 1080p video you need a fast and big SSD. I would be recording Minecraft on this, but if you weren't recording you could buy a smaller SSD.

Only room enough in the rig for 2 drives. I guess you could get USB 3 external HD and a 512GB 840 Pro.

Unfortunately the 780 Classified will not fit unless you remove the side cover, the card is just a tad too tall.

 
say it isn't so.....

No disrespect, but id run with the ROG itx board.  And if you are looking to only use SSD's you can easily put more than just two in there. You can mount them virtually anywhere.

I see you have 2 SSDs. Is there room for an SSD and an old fashion hard drive?

hmmm...This is interesting. Already have a EVGA 750gold power supply. I might just get this case and swap out the 500.

So which 780 can we use inside?

 Well the 500 and 750 have the same height and width but the 750 is 40mm longer.
 
 I'm in the wait and see mode really. I was thinking of waiting on the hydro version. If you can OC and run a 760 4G and the rest of the basics then I'd stick with the 500

 Well you keep referring to just a video card.
 
 So, I can put a high powered video card and cram the rest of the chasis with any component I can possibly fit and a 500W power supply will handle it?

OK. But it is still just a 500W power supply. and my question remains.

Sounds good. I might just actually do a micro-build this time

Now you know why I choose not to get those cards, you need to fix that problem before I will buy any classified card. also its hard to mount the card to the slot bracket cause thier is very little room to work with cause of that extra 1" thickness.
 
Cases now days will hold up to 12.5" cards (my antec 302 case does), so why not make it longer instead of wider?
