IntroductionHi everyone! I've been building PCs for a while now, but I haven't really posted any of my build online. This build originally started out as an upgrade for my current desktop that is an 800D, but I'll be building this system in a 900D as a completely new setup. I've purchased a pretty sizeable amount of parts already, but I've still got a decent amount to go. I'm going to start disassembling my desktop pretty soon and start putting in the new parts soon! I'm not the best photographer, but I'll make sure I try to take lots of pictures for everyone! Parts ListPurchased, Not Purchased, UndecidedCase: Corsair 900DMotherboard: Asus Z87-Pro MotherboardCPU: Intel Core i7 4770KGPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Superclocked in SLI

I'm really excited to get started!

Nice choice. Definitely one of the better blocks or Kepler GPUs.

Thanks man! Just a small update. My 780 Ti came in a couple days ago, but I haven't posted an update due to Christmas. I'll snap a picture tomorrow morning.

Thank you! I lost my phone, so I had to borrow a phone to take this picture, but I've got my loop setup and I've put water in it! Lots more to do.

Thank you! The system is up and running now, but I'm out of town currently, so I don't have any pictures of what the system currently looks like. I've got to do some cable management with the system to clean things up a little, but I'm almost done!
