Ok im about to order it, just need to know if if i should change the hdd or if i should keep the perpendicular recording hdd. And im probably going to stick with the mobo. So anything to change? Rig Link

Edit: also will the gpu fit the case?

That just made my day. GIGIDI!

Ok, I got the RIG down to 1.5K. So what do you guys think? Also :? is that a good mobo? will this Rig last 2 to 4 years?

Edit: will the gpu fit in that case?

Edit: What is "perpendicular recording"? its on the HDD. Should I get one with out it? or is that a good thing?

That monitor can only display 1400*1050 pixels which is really bad for a 20.1 inch monitor.

This one is better and cheaper:

You can save at least 100$ on the motherboard and another 200$ by going for a 8800GTS 640 MB.

Very nice, I'm McLovin that monitor. And yeah I knew that I probably wont be keeping that 786GTX...

Also, about changing that mobo. I'm a bit hesitant... I mean.. I REALLY dont know much about what i should be looking for in a mobo. Any recommendations...(links).... would be great. Its a pretty simple setup, I mean I probably wont do sli and would like one with copper cooling since I want it to last a while.(2,3,4 years... maybe even five...nah not that long, but 2 to 4)

Edit: What are North and South Bridge? and are they important? worth? and which are best?, Also, is copper heatsinks on a mobo worth it?

[QUOTE="Link2legends"]ok, so anything else? i can probably knock off a 100 bucks off from the mobo.RayvinAzn

Definitely cut the motherboard back, you won't need the Striker Extreme, especially without an aftermarket cooler for your CPU.

Also not a big deal, but picking up a SATA DVD RW drive instead of an IDE version. Helps keep the clutter down and all that jazz.

Any rec. on a mobo?

That monitor is too expensive. Also, you could get by with a corsair hx 520 with that setup.

Well I thought the monitor was worth the price because of the 2000 contrast ratio and was 20+ inchs, but if you have any recomendations....? also, i want to keep the corsair 620w incase wayyyy in the future i need more power.
