Need some comments on my new build in 10 yrs lol

This looks good to me. Though I will point out that the XFX Core series are built by CWT and not Seasonic. CWT is a pretty good manufacturer, but not many are up to the level of Seasonic (not that it's necessary for this build).

JonnyGuru disagrees:

Internally, we can see that the Core Edition 550W uses the Seasonic S12II platform, very much like the Core Edition 450W. Even the fan is identical

Same with the 650W and 750W Cores: http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story7&reid=216

don't u hate options sometimes? 😛

Re ASUS > ASRock, I guess it's just from my ancient computer knowledge biasing ASRock... they used to have low quality motherboards meanwhile ASUS = quality.

Well, you are right indeed. :thumbsup: I seem to remember there being a big stink when the Core series replaced the XXX series. I thought it was due to them changing to CWT from Seasonic, but I guess I remembered wrong.
