I'd rather have the 970 but that's out of my price range. Got it installed and so far it works well!

Got 2 new parts yesterday:

Aperture M Multi-card Reader

Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB (16GB) 2400MHZ DDR3 Memory Sticks - And the red on them matches my red fans and the red inside the case!  :thumbup:

Both are good looking Steve.  :thumbup:
I really like that card reader and the price is surprising... thought it would be more.

I've actually paid $10 more for it a Micro Center, where I got both items yesterday. I posted that website cause it showed off it's features better. That's when I realized I paid more for it! LOL But it was a "spur of the moment thing". I've always thought it would be nice to have one...

Card readers are handy when you have cameras or other appliances that need to have their cards read manually, instead of by cable. Back a few (3-4) years ago I found a card reader to be useful often because of having several different card types. Lately I just have the one camera that needs to be read and it's read using a cable.

Well, everyone here has a device or 3 (including our cameras) and they all use cards. So, it would be pretty useful here as well as getting info or photos from cards of friends/family, etc.

While I was at Micro Center I saw this awesome case! It's beautiful! The case opens very easily just by pulling the little handle...both sides of the case have this. However, the sides felt a bit cheap and flimsy.

Graphite Seriesâ„¢ 760T Arctic White Full-Tower Windowed Case

It was for less that $100 at MC and if it was sturdier I would have bought one.

Yes, I really like it and it is a lot easier to get inside the case to clean or to add/remove parts!
