Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

2. Cable Management - Don't know how big of a problem this will be, as I don't have modular psu. I don't care about hiding the cables...
I wrote out a long post, it got ate by having to login again, but in general
1. The case I selected is newer, includes usb 3.0 on the front, has a good internal look to it
2. I combo'd out the power supply to the recommended Corsair, however there was a combo deal to the 850 watts, which made it...
General questions/answers
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
All of the above, mostly at the same time, with about 30 chrome tabs open as well. I can't keep 20 chrome tabs open without my current 4gb system flushing tabs to the cache on disk.

Hey, i'm building my next computer, pricing out parts. goals are for 16 GB of ram, an overclockable processor, and a quality motherboard / power supply.
