Hey all, thanks to the help from PMC, my cousin has built his own custom gaming PC, and we wanted to share some pictures and whatnot. It cost him about $1800, and runs Minecraft at a LOW of about 200 FPS, while on max settings. He named it the Toaster because on Minecraft his skin is a Waffle, and yea xD. So here's some pics, and thanks to everyone who helped us choose the parts =)

Here's of video of it playing Minecraft w/ shaders at 1080p:

After using it for awhile, it runs so perfectly.
It's played all of these games at well over 60 FPS.
Dead Island - Don't know FPS, but well over 60 on max settings.
Titan Fall - 140 range, max settings.
Watch Dogs - 170 range, max settings.
Minecraft - he's been getting about 300 with max settings/shaders xD, however he capsed it at 60.
