runo, your build is almost identical to my dual GTX 570 build suggestion except for the PSU, CPU cooler, and keyboard... and you didn't include the DVD burner either. :huh:

The monitor I suggested is higher quality.
The PSU you suggested is slightly better (but only has a 5-year warranty vs. the HX/AX 750, which has a 7 years warranty)

I thought he mentioned he didn't want a DVD burner... though aside from the case and SSD, anything that wasn't a different pick was a pretty obvious choice to begin with (the brand of the 570s, the RAM, etc.) I picked a fair amount of different parts. The PSU, CPU cooler, mobo, display, and keyboard are all separate.

I also offered the alternative of dual 2GB 6950s. If he ever upgrades to a multidisplay setup, then the total VRAM from the 6950s would be a lot better.

Done! Sorry about that.

It's cool runo, thanks brother.

No prob! Actually, here's another build featuring a different (full aluminum Lian-Li) case, dual 6950 2GBs, and one of the better hi-def sound cards you can put in a rig. The Xonar series from ASUS is really awesome, and their 7.1 PCI Express card is -- IMO more fairly priced than Creatives' top dogs.

I did keep the Crucial M4, which was probably the part that raised the most eyebrows -- I have to admit I did take it from madpistol's build. lol, I apologize if that was the issue there -- I just honestly can't think of many more SATA-III SSDs in that would remain under budget if selected.

BAMF! Linkage!

furiosity, i like this build. terrible mouse choice though lol

Glad you like it xD But what's wrong with the mouse? I've seen and read a lot of good stuff about the Deathadder. I've been wanting it for ages lol.

1 word, Razer. Reviews are always good, because they dont post them a year after they bought it, when almost all razer products start to break. They are all made with a cheap plastic material.

I had a mouse and their barracuda headphones. thankfully i didnt pay for them and won them at a lan tournament. but they didn't last long at all. and Ive heard from many players that the same thing happened to them. and besides, the MX 518 is way better, and i havent messed with the new logitech ones that are laser,
but i didnt like the last laser mouse i played with. 1500dpi is good enough for my style of sensitivity prefrence. if i had one that requires more, i would still be turnning it down.

Mouse and Keyboard are not included in my submission, I find them to be largely personal preference and I tend to love mice people HATE with a firey passion. Here is the submission, it should be a public list. Includes two monitors to run of eyefinity. Also includes a decent sized SSD for games and stuff that NEEDS to be fast, and a terabyte hard drive for the rest. 8GB of ram, 6 core processor etc.

Please say if link is broken.

This is a more budget friendly PC, Has eyefinity so it is capable of some awesome gaming it so desired, HD monitor, 1 TB hard drive, 8 GB ram, 3.2 GHZ quad processor. Radeon 5750 for amazing graphics. Capability for two cards if desired on the motherboard. 1 Sata DVD drive for DVD writing/playback. Windows 7 Professional 64BIT also included for your operating system. Mouse and Keyboards are usually a very personal choice but I included some decent options that are easily swappable. Total cost is $1050 not including shipping. Shipping was $25 to my home in oregon 3 day shipping. This is in my opinion the best bang for your buck with major options for upgrades later.
