my i5 2500k, 2 of my 4 sticks of RAM, my 6850, all my hard drives and SSDs, and my h60. All I really need is a new ITX board, which is on its way right now. And this being the board: [link]

Then I am looking to upgrade the memory to 16GB (2 x 8GB) at 1866 speeds, Replace the 6850 with Maybe a 7970 or 670, and the h60 being replaced with real W/Cing. That's the plan, but we'll see what actually happens. lol

Coo-ool! That thing looks fantastic up close, I'm glad it at least will have a 750-Watt PSU

Total Overkill, but yeah, since I will be parting with the switch at some point, may as well give my case the overkill treatment. lol

What is this "Overkill" You speak of, Never heard of it. Most of my desktops have PSU's well over 750 watts. Well, Actually my three Dell PowerEdge Server have Redundant (1+1) 750W PSU's. But I guess that's different seeing as they require more power anyway. Good luck on your build!

well the PSU is huge and just barely fits in there... lol. but yeah, it has the Big PSU, and the PSU in the Switch is only going to get smaller

Oh Goodness, I remember when the first 1kw PSU's came out, They were Huge! I guess when you have so many cases PSU's get kind of throwed around, are any components going to end up in the switch?

Yes actually... The specs are terrible, so after you read this, take a deep breath!

the CPU will be replaced with a g620, the GPU will be something a little less powerful (maybe 5770/6770 [both are the same lol]), my laptop's hard drive, and the 500w PSU on my testing system.

it's going to become my sister's computer, so that's why the horrible specs. lol

Oh my goodness, I think I might have choked. ha ha ha, I gave my sister a laptop with a One Terabyte Hard Drive and 8GB of ram. I find that giving (umm how do I put this) Non-Tecnology oriented people computers that have low limits has never worked out. Her last laptop literally melted, so I made sure not to get a lemon this time. heh.
