looks really nice. One thing put your video card in the top x16 slot.

I must ask why, I have good results I when I play games like bf 3, which is stable above 80 fps on ultra.
Is there an explanation for why it is not a good place to placede GPU?

The top slot is x16 and the one you have it in is x8 I think. x16 is faster. It's pointless to bottleneck it with x8 when you have an x16 slot available.

Will I get better prefomenc using x16, and how much?

Very nice! I used that same motherboard in my last build, very happy with it. From all the benchmarks I've seen, the difference of x16 vs. x8 is small (3-5fps) most of the time. It's your computer, put your card where you want! thumb.gif

If only 3-5 fps, I'll let it sit where it is, I think it looks better: P

Is your build loud? Also is the case loud in general, I want to know because i am torn between the 550d or the 600t I would like quite but i would also like a h100i in the top. Did you ever take a second to consider what if you chose the 550d. Tell me why you like this case what drove you to get it. Lastly what is the difference between the 600t and the 600tm. Thank you I would really like it if the person who started this thread or anyone else of that matter to answer. I'm quite young so I can not really make a beastly build I can only dream.

Aside from the lane bandwidth, if you raised it to the top slot it would get better cooling, as the front 200mm intake fan could get more air under it.
