      Looking for a third EVGA 770 Hydro, but is not really needed at this point.

          A decent 750W PSU would have handled the job just fine.

              Ya, I always wondered why people bought 1000 plus W psus. I thought it was overkill buying a gold rated 850w. It is pretty bad ass though I imagine to be able to say you are running a 1500 watt unit.

                Bit of a delay as I decided to spend more and thus pushing back the build. Decided to sell my 770's and get Dual EVGA 980ti SC and EK water blocks. One card bought, second one next week. Also looking at going with a Samsung 950 pro 512g, which will push my build back even farther.

                        got a line on a Gunmetal grey SMA8, think it will fit my black/red theme? maybe going with grey sleeving?

                          I like the gunmetal colour they have more than the black, I'm sure it would look good regardless. Although the graphite cables Daz sells look nice with just about any other colour and would match the case pretty well.

                              X4 res will be the first build I've seen one in.
                              2x 980ti's is total overkill. loving it.
                              You got some major raddage listed there as well.
                              Loving it.
