New build need opinion/input/advice etc

All i can say is holy crap a SSD makes a HUGE difference... I got all my parts and put everything together and i was surprised how everything booted up perfectly fine and there were no hiccups! I'm usually used to a DOA memory module or the mobo bios being upset with something and getting the...

Thank you for your input and i would of definitely gone with what you have listed if i was on a budget. This build i kind of just went balls to the walls and just ordered off of reviews and what people on this forum as well as tom's hardware had to say. I considered the 7990/7970 GHz edition...

ooh that makes my choice even harder... I was actually looking at this mobo before i decided on the Hero. Only thing that scares me is i currently have the MSI Big Bang X Power right now and only after 3 months of use one of the memory slots went bad which left a sour taste in my mouth.

I had the Rampage Extreme 3 as my original mobo with my core i7 extreme edition and it was an overall good mobo and i liked all the features. I really wanted the Extreme but i know i won't utilize all the features and the Hero is priced at $229 on newegg so it won't break the bank!

I've decided to go with the Maximus VI Hero, the extreme is nice but I wouldn't be using it to it's potential and the hero is in the $200 range.
