Hey /G I was looking for some advice on my build so far, kinda just an average gaming build, maybe looking to upgrade with the release of the 1080.

Bump with guts
Well, I went ahead and ordered parts for a transition build so I can sell my current 2012 build. http://pcpartpicker.com/list/6qmqkT
Old build:
>Phenom ii x4
>cheap non-modular PSU I don't even remember what wattage, I think green certified and not 80+
>thermaltake v3 cable clusterfuck
>gtx 750 2gb
The new build is actually a straight upgrade. However, the Athlon, RAM, and mobo still just a placeholder for eventual Zen parts. In spite of that, I'm really liking the power efficiency of the athlon, so I'll have an easier time waiting for price drops and lower-budget chips with Zen.
I think I'll try and sell my old build for ~$400, and throw in an old monitor and keyboard if people won't buy it. A bit steep, but still doing someone's kid a favor compared to a prebuilt in this pricerange.

already have one, might be selling it and getting the 480 depending on the benchmarks.
who /hotswap/ here? when I realized I could put my empty 3.5" bays to use with one of these, I immediately knew I had to get one at some point. They just seem so damn convenient.
