That's right!!  I'm as giddy as a child on Christmas morning! 
I'm building a moderate gaming system for my nephew.  All the parts are new except for the PSU and the GPU which I robbed from my 4P cruncher.  This, of course, will my mean 4P will be in semi-retirement until a new PSU finds its way to my door step.

    Looks like fun.
    Better make sure it crunches good before you turn it over.


    Agree, a nice week long stress test should do it.

    Oh, it's going to be tested for at least a month.

    It was not any easy build.  More than one I had to remove a component I had already installed so I could install something else or route a cable differently, but as you can see it resulted in a very clean build and looks great, if I do say so myself.
     
    Oh, and the more observant of you will notice that my GPU is not the 680 I showed in my previous photo.  The EVGA PSU is about 1/2 inch too tall so the 680 would not fit.  Had to use my 750Ti instead.  It's not as powerful but it is much more energy efficient and it saved me from having to find room for a couple of VGA cables.
