A warrior with no master

The name comes from the case Bitfenix Ronin and i chose it over the Air 540 which hopefully i wont regret it, i just thought i cant justify the £50 difference fpr a casual built and knowing my kids they would be sitting all over it cause of its width!

This is my first real attempt as before i had a premade built and got rid of some parts and kept some and finally had ''permission'' from the wifey to go through with the order, this of course after spending about £1.2k on her and the kids lol for Christmas!

This will be my long term built but its only a casual gamer built and will be used for other things as well.

why does HDMI suck ??? i always thought HDMI > DVI. And whenever ive done some research people say that only real difference is that HDMI carries audio while DVI doesnt, as i cant be bothered to get a speaker and not intend on gaming or playing loud music, inbuilt monitor speakers is more than enough for me. Also if i decide to ever touch my xbox 360 again or get an xbox one i can always use the HDMI slot...
 
Ahhh i cant wait to get the delivery!

Btw is there any way of testing that your psu is working fine? At my disposal i only have a motherboard, ssd and hdd no gpu, as i sold a lot of my old rigs parts and almost sold my motherboard today.

Im just worried because my daughter was once fiddling with it and its been about 2 months since i touched it and ocuk will only delivery in january after xmas... Should i just play it safe buy one, not open it and if my old one does work, return it?
