Nice rig's your daughter has one good rig

Pretty solid rig Ryan, excellent GPU but the sticker doesn't looks good IMO
What case is that?
RIG UPDATE:
Overclocked my CPU to 3.4 (3.4 05) WOOT!
6GB ddr2 800mhz DELL PC ram LOL.
My rig sucks I know but I game like bulletstorm and such or WoW.

Thanks German, I'm not crazy about the sticker either never even played the game, it was a slightly overclocked model of the 580GTX series from EVGA and I got a good price for it, the case is an Antec 900/2.
The case looks good, and cools good, but is a little tight for my big hands to get around in.

It powers up! Going to install software tonight. Nice case to work in. I need a longer Crossfire bridge, you'd think it would come with the MoBo like the SLI stuff did.
@gainiac...
Nice build... I like the white Corsair 600T. I went with the Corsair 650D for my upgrade over the white Corsair 600T.
Hey ryan!
I like your rig, so much I want to copy it. The only thing I want is a bigger case, what would you suggest?

A HAF 932 or 922 can give you a lot of room space for the inside components.
The Antec DF-85, Antec 1200 V3, along with all the Corsair cases are good options.

Here's a youtube video! Freshly uploaded.
Specs are in Sig. It's over a year old now, with only the video card upgrade from a GTS250 to a GTX460 about 8 month ago. The next upgrade will probably be a SSD, and maybe another GTX460 (I don't play any games that really need more than that, and that should last me until Ivy Bridge upgrade next year).
I have the 230mm fan on the side panel.

Added:
I've since updated to a Sandy Bridge i7-2600K, with a Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD4 mobo with 16GB (4x4GB) of G.Skill RAM. I also have a HIS HD Radeon 6950 2GB GPU. (Sig isn't updating correctly) The rest is the same.
Is that a Bengal you have sitting on your case? Weird...I looked at getting the 600T (eventually went for the 750D) and I have 2 Bengal cats...brown marble and brown spotted. The next 'upgrade' will be a snow marble. Lovely, lovely cat you have there.

This is my first ever build, and please excuse my out-of-focus picture taking skills. I'm not thrilled at how my cable management turned out but I don't think airflow is hampered too badly.

Sorry for the crap build and cables
Dayummm Saint. Give me some of that money! I wanna build my dream build so bad... Too bad it costs $1200.
I removed cage and....
This is what the older inerad was like
I can now put in longer cards in my pc
and I overclocked my 2.9 to a 3.2 (at 3.4 it burns up cuasing MAJOR lags in games within 20 mins) I will get a new CPU cooler or at least try. I will be getting a 6 core CPU. Soon my mid level will be nearly high end
. The case is a ULTRA xblaster. I need to manage the cables
.

Nice rig. How quiet is it? I have nearly finished my build in a Corsair 600 T and concentrated on both quite and cool. I modded out the top 200mm fan for 2 X 120 mm fans (going with the Xigmatec Crystal Whites). The top fans give me about 120 cfm as opposed to the 80 cfm of the single 200 mm fan. I also modded out the corsair black rear 120 mm fan for another Xigmatec.
I am waiting on the last piece, the Antec H20 620 to replace my CPU cooler.
I'd be interested in exchanging info on temps and noise when my rig is done.
