Good Morning All

I am looking to upgrade the ageing parts of my system (q6600 and GTX460) I had thought about going all out and getting a new system but I am looking to maybe buy a few parts instead.

I currently have a couple of bits I would be thinking about holding onto

Antec Nine Hundred Gaming Case
Corsair TX750
hitachi hds72101*2

I know the HD's are a bit old now but I am hoping the performance jump to something newer is not that big especially as the O/S and most used items would be on the new SSD I am thinking of getting. I would also be looking towards keeping hold of my Windows 7 at this moment in time as well.

I am thinking of getting.

"Quasar 245i" Intel Core i7 4770K @ 4.4GHz Overclocked Haswell Gaming PC Bundle
MSI Geforce GTX 770 Gaming Edition 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Samsung 250GB SSD 840 SATA 6Gb/s Basic + OcUK Professional 2.5" to 3.5" SSD Adaptor Plate

Just wanted a few thoughts and opinions before I went ahead and to double check it would all fit together and not be too hard to setup at my end.

Sorry to necro this thread but I will receive my items today just wondering if there are any helpful bits of advice or things to watch out for when installing my bundle, graphics card, ssd that I need to be aware of before i start.

Thanks in advance.
 
make sure everything is unplugged from the mains
where your anti static wrist band
handle with care
test each item individually with the psu just to see that it powers up fine. you dont need a screen for this and you dont need to screw everything in the case either it can be done outside the case althou attaching the monitor would be good so you can see onscreen the results
