Well this will be my first ever EVGA mobo and I hope i'm not let down. I am reusing a few of the components from my old build but most is new.
 
Z77 ftw
3570k
evga 680 superclock sig w/ backplate
corsair vengeance 1600
switch 810 black
caviar black 
2 m4 64 gb
Noctua nh-d14
Corsair ax750
 
When I sell some more of my liquid cooling stuff I will sleeve my PSU and fans. I hope to get another 680 in the future.
 
But if you are interested in liquid cooling parts check out my thread: http://forums.evga.com/tm.aspx?m=1679629
 
Ill add more pictures once I start getting it out and set up.

    Got real far.....
     
    Just kidding me and one of the plastic spacers for my noctua played hide n go seek for 2 hours. It fell off in my case and ended out finding it on the other side of the room.
     
    Didn't know that it would also cover the first 2 slots no matter which way I turned it. So looks like ill be getting some low profile ram probably. Will have to see.
     
    Edit, may try turning it the other way and removing the rear fan. I think it will only cover the first slot and I can just remove the heat distributor

    Change the orientation of my noctua along with changing the fans so they blow out the rear. Freed up my second ram slot, so just ordered some dominator platinum. It may touch the edger of my cpu heatsink but oh well not much I can do about that.
     

     
    Still is to close to my first  PCI-e but that doesn't matter since ill use 2 and 4

    Nice!
    Love to see another Noctua DH14 user
     
    I'll pop a photo here to show you how close my GTX 670 sits to my Noctua, as I have it configured in the same way you do, except my fans blow towards the back of the case, not the front.

    Mine still blow out the back. I change the side the clips where on both fans. 
     
    And thanks everyone, looks much cleaner than my 932 build I had. Still waiting on my ram, estimated delivery time is 8pm

    Dude I was about to get that RAM. But its freakin expensive. I was going to get the 2133mhz 8GB for 130 bucks. I love how they look and the white lights on them. SO I found me some new RAM which is my Avexirs that is 2133mhz 8GB for 95. Also my RAM matches my case and color scheme by pulsing blue. Check out the video.

    Originally I was going to get 2133 but I don't think id see a big enough difference to spend $60 more which will pay for my cable sleeve.

    Your 1600mhz is enough for gaming. You wont notice a difference in gaming with 2133mhz. The reason why I got 2133mhz is so I can get a higher benchmark score lol. What I want to do now is lower my timings to see if I can get a higher score with my ram. By the way which 1600mhz did you get? Did you get the one that is 5 bucks extra for faster timings?

    Still working on getting everything switched to red :P 
     

     
    Sorry about the blurry picture. The fans still have a little white showing in the middle which I may fix next weekend but I need my computer for school. I did it in my garage with it open which was a terrible idea, there is a bunch of dust and crap on them but oh well when they are spinning at 800 RPM you can't see it anyways. First time painting fans so I don't think they came out bad. I dropped on though and broke the fins off. Oh well they aren't that great of fans anyway but they do get the job done.
