Great job! This is a nice little gaming machine... Smile

Why did you change your GPU to Nvidia? Is it because you wanted to water cool it?

Awesome fitting all that in there....

It seems to me that Intel's more suited for nVidia or not?
Which is better for Gigabyte GTX 680 2GB or Gigabyte Radeon HD 7970 3GB?

I also seems that the GTX 680 is better and more suitable for Intel

Awesome build! My living room rig uses a 3570k and a GTX 660Ti, but it's nowhere near as compact as your 120 case is. Have you tried higher end game emulation?
You should be able to run Dolphin and PCSX2 pretty well, not to mention Steam games will run pretty well too.
