Kindly criticise my newly ordered pc!

When built, the highest degree of functionality for the lowest possible cost was the aim and goal.

I wouldn't want a crossfire configuration in that case. upgrade to at least a haf 912. Also I prefer to have one single powerful gpu then 2, so it can give me more juice in the future if i need it. A 2gb 6950 would be good. No need for the water cooling the titan is equally as good and risk free. I would also suggest getting a hd monitor with this rig. Finally add the £5 warranty its a must :)

Could drop down toe a 955 aswell and feel no really difference just to save a few pennys to put towards the changes madman suggested.

@Madman the monitor he picked is HD.

i5 2500 is faster, cooler and uses less power and since theres not much of price difference then I would go for it ever time.
