    Desktop Build

    Last thread, I promise. After seeing how much cheaper it is, I've decided to build myself. Just want to make sure these components will play nice together. Anyone wanna help out and look them over for glaring errors or oversights?

    A GTX 780 would be far and beyond a better choice for a GPU. It's cheaper, and absolutely demolishes the 290X in performance.
    In addition, is there any reason for going Mini-ITX and Micro-ATX for the Mobo and Case?

    I thought the 290X Would be more powerful Since I made a post about the 290 or the 780 and everyone said the 290 :L
    Don't like what I say? Here's a solution.

    Everyone said the 780, with BF4 being the only close one.
