:sleep: The 768MB version is like $170-180 now. You can pick up a 1GB version for $200. If you want 3 monitors, I recommend saving up for SLI 460s.
If you want Eyefinity, you're going to want more power than a measly 5830 can put out. But hey, it's your money, go ahead and spend it on what you want.

Ah I don't believe a 1156 socket is preferd to SLI/X-Fire a dx11 gen card. Anyhow this build is for my brother, and ge wants to stay to one card. He bumped down his price to under 700 so I plan to talk about importance of dx11 and if he really needs it or not, and look at amd combo deals. He wanted to get some refurbished gateway with horrid motheboard and bad GPU for 630. It came with a mouse and keyboard but it's stilll garbage sk who knows if he will even budge.

It is fine to SLI/CF on 1156.

I just bought 2 470's for my triple monitor setup
 
Sorry, keep that to a maximum of 8500KR :blush:

Okay, I'll work on that later in the day. I am so tired from last night. My best friend just had his first concert. As in, he played in the concert. It was awesome.

Yeah. It may not be the most harddrive space, but if you install Windows to the SSD, and put Chrome or whatever you use on it, it would be super fast.

Okay, here is the build. If you want anything changed about it, lmk.
I put in an SLI capable motherboard so you can slap in another GTX 460 when you get the money.

I have a few questions.
What kind of work stuff? Or, what programs do you need to run?
Also, by something blue for the case, do you mean the chassis itself or having blue LEDs?
Also, there is supposed to be new GPUs from AMD coming out in like 5 days, so it wouldn't even be worth it to do a build right now, even if you're not going to buy it.

4b. How much harddrive space do you need/want? lots
