You could drop the psu to a 650w or less, the Corsair HX 650W.
The motherboard is quite a high spec one, have you looked at the Gigabyte versions - clicky
And perhaps look at the Patriot memory with the Gigabyte motherboard above.
I suppose I should mention I use an ANTEC new truepower 650w with mine.
The cables reach perfectly.
Someone mentioned just the other day that they built the same case for their dad with a corsair, and they had to use the 8pin ATX adaptor supplied with the case to reach.
ok starting at stulid. yes i probably could stretch a little bit to 1TB. i know the 920 is on offer but i would rather have the improved (i think) 930.
@RJC i really dont want an SSD just yet i know they offer great performance boosts and ive witnessed the power. it is awesome! but first ill get a solid build and add too it. i dont want to reduce my wattage because i want to xfire in about a year. i reckon 5870s will still be great cards by then. had a look at the UD3R but the feature set of the Asus is what draws me and it looks like a great overclocker for noobs with automatic BIOS reset and things like that. almost on par with the R2E which is a plus. patriot viper wont fit under the Noctua NH-D14 unfortunately.
@stulid again, dont want to drop to 650w. and i dont mind using an adapter.
@David09, i think i will be fine with non OEM plus as i said before i would rather go with the 930 unless someone justifies buying the 920 over the 930 excluding price as a factor.
i am pretty sure that i read that the 920 does overlock better then the 930?
not sure if it can outperform an overclocked 930 but it should out perform a stock clocked 930
holy crap! thats like 2.Ghz from just over clocking - how much more heat would that bring out? even though i just got my system i think i might have a nice upgrade come the end of the year
