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:
