Check my build out!

[Cruzikins]

So I feel like I did a pretty good job picking out the parts for this build, but tell me what you think!

I already have a 750ti so thats why there is no gpu listed and if your wondering about why the ps is so huge it's because I plan on upgrading gpus in the future and I also wouldn't mind to see suggestions on what I should change

Cryorig H5 Universal instead of the H7. Why? No ram interference and cools better at a more quiet noise .
Asus or Gigabyte over MSI. Why? They usually have more reliable motherboards .
Western Digital over Seagate . Why? They have green around longer and don't have a high failure rate .
Evga G2 for best quality and your good . Quality over wattage

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/6y8KFT so I did listen to what u said but I do not want to change the case and I do not want a non modular ps so I went ahead and chose a GS series 550 watt ps same price as the NEX but better quality according to other people so tell me what u think

Wrong about the WD -vs- Seagate generic blanket statement

The WD Caviar Blue drives have been terrible for us here. We have 6000+ computers in service and they don't last as long as the standard Seagate drives in our equipment.

If you want one that actually IS better than a Seagate drive, you need to go up to a red or black, depending on your use for the drive.

I personally use Seagate, Hitachi and Samsung. So far, they are all 4+ years old and still within spec on diags.
Not just desktop use either. I have 2 servers, an 8 disk SAS/SATA Sun ZFS storage array, a media PC with a 4 disk striped raid array for temporary video caps, and dozens of machines built for friends and family over the past 20 years.
