All looks fine, though know if your GPU fails you can't use intergrated graphics with that mobo.

You just had an unlucky string of bad luck. Most people don't get the same experience you got, so don't go around preaching the supposed horribleness of custom building.

No... just no. In your other thread the components you posted apart from the CPU are all different, so how is having just one component that's the same equal to "nearly the same components"?... And even if they where identical the chances of him running into the same issues you had would be 1000 to 1.

Guess what... I have built close to 30 PC's over the past 10 years and only several of them gave me a headache but those are just down to faulty parts.

Also guess what? I too just built a PC with a i5 2500k and a HD 6870... that's one more component similar to his than you, and heres the crazy part... NOT ONE ISSUE! :o... you'd think since we have the same CPU that I too would be having the same issues when building my system.
