Post a few pics once you get that motherboard in the case. My Sabertooth should be here by Tuesday.

I also went with the 2500K. Ill post some pics as well once the stuff gets here.

Tons of pics all along the way of the build for sure (in case I screw up)...

I just realized, We are building almost identical rigs.

I ordered....

P67 Sabertooth
4 GIG G.Skill "Was the same as yours. I switched to the newer memory"
2500K
Win 7 64
Cooler Master V6 GT
I already have two Samsung Spinpoint F3's "No SSD's"
My build is going into a Antec P182 until the Spring
I have 2x6870's. Will be picking up 2xGTX560's "maybe" Between those and a single 570.

So pretty much the same innards except for GPU.

Were gonna have to do some comparing once finished. Overclocks / Temps....etc: :thumbsup:
