Building a High-End i7 Gaming PC

We finally got around to making our new gaming PC. Not that since this video was made, the video card has been upgraded to an EVGA GeForce GTX 780 3 GB card, and the SSD to a 240GB Seagate 600. Here are it's initial specs:

Antec Eleven Hundred Mid-tower Gaming Case
Kingwn KX-1000 1000W ATX Power Supply
ASRock X79 Extreme6 LGA 2011 Gaming Motherboard
Intel Core i7-3820 Sandy Bridge-E 3.6 GHz LGA 2011 Processor
Thermaltake Frio CPU Cooler
16 GB (4x4 GB) DDR3 1600 G.Skill Ares Series Memory
2x MSI GeForce 560 GTX (Fermi) 1 GB 256-Bit Video Card (Now EVGA GTX 680 Superclocked+ 2 GB)
Crucial M4 64 GB Solid State Drive
Seagate Barracuda 1 TB 7200 RPM 6 GB/s Hard Drive
Lite-On Black SATA DVD-ROM Drive iHDS118-04
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit Operating System
Acer H Series H274HLbmd 27" Widescreen 1920x1080 LCD Monitor
Microsoft Sidewinder X4 Keyboard
Razer Deathadder 5-button Gaming Mouse

All together, the cost comes out to be around $2100, including the first GTX 560 we got months earlier and the 27" monitor, gaming mouse, keyboard, and mat. The price we paid for the actual rig parts just before making this PC was under $1600.
