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

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:
