hm. i probably will end up getting a new monitor. i work at bestbuy so i should be able to get the manager to get me a pretty dece discount. Im gonna let it wait a bit tho. This comp but a large hole in my wallet.

Antec 900 Case

Visiontek HD 4870 ( two of them in crossfire)

Intel C2Q 2.66ghz (plannin to overclock to 3.2 ghz once I get my windows vista and test it out. I will get the Xigamatek HDT S1283 for this

Gigabyte x48 dQ6 mobo

Patriot pc2-6400 ram (800 mhz)

Pc power and cooling 750 watt psu CF rdy

It cost me about 1600. The only complaint I have is that with technology increasing so rapidly im sure its only a matter of time before this system is outdated

This is what im looking at right now, will be buying it as soon as i can get the graphics cards, (I have to wait for a family member who works for ATI to order me some)

Antec 900 - 109.95

2 x HD4870 in CF - (50% off) - 310.00

Corsair - TX 750 W PSU w/ 140 mm Fan - 114.95

Intel C2Q Q9450 2.66ghz - 359.95

Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 w/ DualDDR2 1200, 7.1 Audio, Gigabit Lan, 1394, Dual PCI-E x16 CrossFire - 324.95

Patriot DDR2 4gb (2 x 2gb) - 109.95

SEAGATE- 500gb barracuda hardrive - 84.95

samsung speedplus dvd writer - 27.95

Vista 64 bit

my budget is 2000 ( cheaper if possible)

Thanks any suggestions are appreciated

If you want tri or quad crossfire, you will have to go with AMD processors.

The 790FX is the best quad crossfire ready board.
