New Computer Build, What Do ya'll think?

...but the above guy is pushing that 520HX to the limit. Constantly. And that's not good for it at all.

I have a quad OCed, 2 GTXs, 2 RAM modules, 1 HDD, 2 opticals. I pull 600+ watts at the wall under load. Even dropping 100 watts (which is very generous) for the dual vs quad, and ignoring that he has another HDD, I would never, ever recommend a 520HX for the above listed setup. Ever. If that guy switches to a quad, it's all over. A 620HX isn't really enough for me to be comfortable. That's 750TX territory, pure and simple.

The OP, however, should be fine with the 620HX.

well am I ok then? or am i really close to pushing it, I don't think I'll be doing any OCing.
 
ah nvm fixed the problem, the motherboard was touching the mobo holder, and the metal and the transistors connection shorted it. put some risers on, and its all good.
