Copy my rig in my sig but with Xfire 6950 or a GTX 590 :)
Or wait till Bulldozer and see if they do anything over sandybridgeSmoke89
If you are willing to wait for bulldozer you might as well skip than and wait for ivy bridge. 3-d transistors FTW.

$1936.86 with Monitor, Headphones, Speaker system, keyboard and mouse. Overkill. You said all that was covered and either way that build is horrible I meant I'd pick them myself, which I did. Why is it horrible? What should I change?[QUOTE="Madnessss1"][QUOTE="Brean24"]

[QUOTE="Brean24"]You said all that was covered and either way that build is horrible I meant I'd pick them myself, which I did. Why is it horrible? What should I change? For one, you have a micro atx motherboard, thats the reason it is so cheap. You need a regular motherboard since you are buying a normal case. Also you have a i72600, the best CPU on the market, but you have a 6870 as your GPU, its unbalanced. I would get a i52500k and get a GTX570 or a 69501GB if you want to spend less money[QUOTE="Madnessss1"] $1936.86 with Monitor, Headphones, Speaker system, keyboard and mouse. Overkill.Madnessss1

Get a 2500k for sure... you save about $100 compared to the 2600k and the performance really isn't worth the difference. OC the 2500k and you won't need to upgrade for a long, long time.
I wanted to try out Nvidia. Been on ATi since I started gaming. Add me on steam adam, much easier to chat than wait hours for replies :) Steam-UMad?!?!If money isnt a problem you can do much better than that. . . Again copy the specs in my sig and just get two ATi 6950's
