Does this PC check out? I'm planning to do a build this summer. Also, I would like to know if you guys have any suggestions in terms of getting better parts cheaper.
I'm just looking for a PC to play the newest games at decent settings.

Also, 4th gen Intel Processors are supposed to come on June 3rd, should I wait for those instead?
EDIT: I APOLOGIZE TO MODERATORS. I REALIZE THIS IS THE WRONG SECTION.
looks good but the CX750 is pretty bad value, [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182133[/url] is much better for $90
Haswell is slated to be completely awesome, I'd totally wait. I built my Ivy system a month ago and kind of regretted it.

The specs on that CX750 show it can do 744W max on the 12V rail depending on the load of the 3.3V and 5V rails. What makes the equally priced(or $20 more expensive after rebate) Rosewill better when it only does 648W?

because it doesn't have a shitty lack of connectors and is way better value? you'll never draw anywhere near 744W on 12V with two 6 pin pcie connectors, so it's entirely pointless. you'd get more use out of the cx500 than the cx750.
I've used molex to PCI-E before when there was a lack of PCI-E connectors but thanks for the explanation anyway.
Thanks for the replies, I guess I'll wait for the 4th gen processors too.

sorry if I came across as a butthole, I didn't mean to

No, that was pretty civil compared to how I post. I just legitimately didn't get why it was a bad value, so I'm glad you explained it. I never remember to check if a PSU even has a sufficient amount of connectors to use the wattage it can put out.
The Gigabyte 7950 is cheaper, and has better cooling.

Sign up for their mailing list. I get at least two emails about their sales per week.
