The GPUs are already pretty dated and so is the QX6700. For what you spent on 4 gigs of DDR3 1600 you could've instead gotten a Q9450, and probably SLI 9800gtx's or crossfire hd4850s.

Wouldnt go that low but a 7.5 out of ten because you spent too much on the 790 and ddr3. You could have bought ddr2 and 2 GTX260's for like $450 off newegg.
Some people are funny. Just because there is newer stuff out, doesnt make the older stuff "dated". 2 8800GT's will handle most everything with ease. Wpend a s**t load more money for a few frames a second... I hate this gen SLI boards though so..
i Havent spend that much i got da mobo from a friend that works in bulding pc and i got da ram for 190 with mail in rebate and everything else i had from my recent build which was a p5n32 sli premium with ddr2 667
what hard drive are you using with that? and isn't a 9800 better than two 8800gt's? you are wasting a lot of extra electricity having two older cards instead of the newer one that uses less power.
Value wise a 6/10 since the 790i is pricy and not needed. You blew alot of money on the motherboard thats being replaced this year by LGA 1366 and you could of waited and gotten a TRUE quad core processor in october for about the same price....
In relation to playing games (current and coming out within the year) I'd give it a 9/10. In terms of value, most bang for your buck, I'd give it an 8.
