No PSU?
No RAM?
No case?
No CPU?
No headset/speakers?

Nvm it's upgrades not a new system

What CPU do you have? With this build, and not getting a new CPU you may  be risking a bottleneck!

I have 8GB Corsair 1,333MHz ram. Not the best, but not a bottleneck.
i5 2500k OC'd at 4.5GHz. Nowhere near a bottleneck.
Antex Earthwatts Green 750w PSU. Plenty to SLI with later. Even with 670.
1TB HD
240GB SSD

What I bought were just upgrades.

Nevermind, you've got a very nice build there.

He doesn't need to buy any RAM when he can just download some.

That's a pretty loving nice computer :O

You should have gone with the Galaxy 670, it has a custom cooling design that's alot better.

That cooling doesn't work well with SLI. I prefer rear exhaust.

So you are planning on SLI?

Yeah. Within a half year probably.
