Ive had no issues with UPS. Fedex however...

Oh yeah, it was a surprise when i noticed how big it actually was, and its nice to have the sleekness of it and everything. This is my first build ever too, so im super excited for next thursday

You should spend a little more and get a R7 265 or R9 270.

I can, it just didn't look good. Made it look like some generic prebuilt.
Not really? I've never seen a prebuilt computer with an atom model on it.

I had a special moment when I took off the front fan cover and realised that the brushed aluminium is actual brushed aluminium and not plastic with an effect on it. I was worried it might all be plastic after seeing pictures of the back of it in videos.

My only complaint about it is how flimsy the side panels feel. Also, I have cats, and I wonder what would be the best way to take cat hair off of the side window, since hair is sticking to it.

The panels do flex a bit but they don't jiggle at all once they're on the case, I also find it easier to put the panels on because they don't have the slide-locks which are a pain to line up sometimes. I'd recommend buying a microfibre cleaning cloth to keep the window clean, should be good for anything and after a while hairs won't stick to the window as much as the static charge will dissipate over time (hanging around in the packaging and being removed from it causes plexi panels like these to have a weird static effect for some reason).

PSU: CHIEFTEC CTG-500-80P (500W)
Motherboard: ASRock H61M-VS
Processor Name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2300 CPU @ 2.80GHz
Memory: 8192 MBytes DDR3 Corsair Venceance (1600 MHz, CL9)
Hard disk: 2 Terrabytes total - WD Green
Case Coolers: 3 (2x120mm, 1x90mm)
Other: Internal Card Reader

I currently have a GTX 460, in the future, I intend to buy a GTX 760. Would the PSU and everything be enough to support that without making any other changes to the parts? I am positive the compability is fine with the Mobo (Just that PCIe2.0 instead of 3.0 ohwell) but what about the PSU? Would the PSU be enough? Googling says 500W is Min. Recommended PSU, but that is in particular PCs; with whatever parts I have, would that be enough?
