Time for a home Workstation / Server redo

Some details on latest project.   I've been Using AMD processors for 5 years or so, and have been pleased with the results, unlike most people, I have kissed off Micro$oft WinBloze for normal use. I have been using Fedora for last few years,
since I am very much a Redhat / Centos fanboy.

So on to details of latest Machine.

AMD FX-9590 oem 4.77Ghz  Processor.
Since the price on this chip is almost affordable, I used it.  Biggest Issue
220 Watt TDP.  This chip tends to fry eggs.

32GB of Ram

AMD OEM closed loop Water Cooling Kit.

NVIDIA Corporation GM107 [GeForce GTX 750 Ti] (rev a2)  

ASUS Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 Motherboard

600 Watt Power Supply

1 TB Seagate Drive
2 TB Seagate Drive

128 GB SSD 

Dual 27" Monitors

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

System is loaded with Fedora 20.
1TB Drive is  Root Drive
2TB Drive is  /Home

SSD Drive is used for BCache Drive Caching.

Performance is very "Nice".

KVM/Qemu is used for Virtualization of Linux / Windows Guests.
