Congratulations on your first build, it all looks pretty sweet to me! How'd you find it putting it all together?

EDIT: What's the thing under the Graphics card box?

haha a little scary at first looking at it all and making sure i got all the wireing right and that under grahics card box is the intel tool kit with mag-lite on offer at a tenner so thought i would get :)
 
You got some sweet components there dude!

Next you gotta sort out those cables!:eek::p

But for first time build it looks pretty good man, let us know how you get on with it and come back with any questions you got or anything:)
 
Looks good, well done on your first build, i remember my first build i had the same spaghetti junction at the end, my reason was i was too exited to mess about hiding wires and all that, just wanted to see it working :)

If i was looking at a new case that HAF would be on my list, love the way the drives are situated, my stacker 832 has a stupid hdd cage which can be awkward.

I wouldnt mess with overclocking just yet, your system is fast enough to run most games well, + your i5 2500k turbo's up to 3.7 when needed, imo overclocking is only needed if things dont run well.
 
yes i will be looking at the sorting the wireing out at the front thats the next step but compared to my last case this one looks like a palace in comparison! :)
 
Nice system there! Not a fan of the case either, but each to their own.

That Sapphire 5850 Xtreme is a cracking card for the money and very cool & quiet.

Spend a bit if time on cable management and then get overclocking!!
