What do you guys think? Coolermaster elite 130 case, i7 4790k, Gigabyte z97N-wifi mobo, 16 GB pc2133 ddr3 G.Skill Ripjaws Z, pny 770 OC2 4 gb, Seasonic s12d 850 watt psu, and OCZ 460 SSD with 240 GB. Much needed upgrade since my last PC I built was from 7 years ago (e8400 c2d, 460 gtx, 4 gig DDR, 7200 rpm HD after Raptor died).

PSU is the only thing I'm reusing.
 
Congrats on the new rig. I'm with D4rkn3ss, I don't trust OCZ's reputation at this point. They've always been the fastest, but I would gladly take the minor performance hit and use Crucial, Intel, or Samsung.

Take pics after you've put it together. If I had some extra cash, I'd probably make a mATX system. Don't much see the point of even a mid tower anymore.

I'd stand by long term reliability and current reputation over a company that essentially went bankrupt and had really unreliable SSDs, comparatively.
 
Ocz warranty seems to be good. If it fails I'll just replace it.

Regarding case, my old system was in a YY Cube. Talk about huge.
