Wat u Guys Think?

Processor- Intel Core i7 930 2.80GHz 8MB (Overclocked to 4.0GHZ) (Water Cooled) - No need for water cooling, the chip overclocks quite stable on air. Most run it at 4.1 or 4.2 on air with no problems.

Motherboard- ASUS P6T LGA 1366 Intel X58 - I wouldn't buy an ASUS board with your money, let alone my own. Go with eVga.

Memory- Mushkin 6GB DDR3 PC3-12800 6GB Triple Channel Kit - Why pay that much when there is cheaper, better ram out there. Don't buy the name, buy the product. Go with G Skill.

Hard Drive- Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB SATAII 7200RPM 32MB - No complaints here. Unless you want me to say "Buy a velociraptor!"

Optical Drive- LG 10x Blu-Ray Reader / DVD-RW SATA w/Lightscribe Black - Good drive, the lightscribe is terrible on previous LG opticals. Hopefully it got better.

Video Card- Sapphire Radeon HD 5830 1GB DDR5 PCI-E - I won't get into the ATI / nVidia debate here. Not my choice of product, but to each his own

Chassis- ANTEC Twelve-Hundred Ultimate Gamer Case - No need for such a large case unless you are determined to run water cooling. The 900 would be plenty big enough.

Power Supply- Corsair TX Series 650W Power Supply - Good for the price, I think it's around $80 now. Will this be enough power though?

PC Cyber Warranty- 1 Year (First 15 Days Direct Replacement)

Im think of putting duel Sapphire Radeon HD 5830. - Not with a 650W PSU you aren't.

Il see what i can do but for ram i was ganna go with Patriot

And the Case i just like them when there big, and for the water i agree with u a was ganna put a VQSpin from TK.

ASUS Motherboard, Il think about that one, but i no from Exp. there very good. And they dont sail eVga.

Graphic Card thx for pointing that out i will need a bigger PS, il stay with one Card.

Pretty good, but I wouldn't trust someone to build your computer for you. You will probably need a more powerful PSU, and Ford's right, the liquid cooling is a bit much and a little unreliable, though for that OC you need a real nice fan, you're looking at $80 for an aftermarket cooler at least. You could also probably get double the RAM for the same price, and GSkill is a good company, I use them myself as do my friends. Also, there's a $100 difference between the 1200 and the 900, and the 900 is a gamer case enough, but if you have the cash to blow go ahead.

All around though a pretty good price. I was looking at one myself with more powerful graphics, better PSU, 2 hard drives and more RAM, but only an i7 920 stock and an Antec 900 and it was about the same price off Newegg.

That would be a beast of a gaming rig for a tad bit more than the one you are wanting to build, and would out perform it in anything you threw at it.

[Janke 1st MRB]

No, not 8GB, 9GB. He's got triple-channel support, he should use it, therefore he needs one of 3, 6, 9, or 12 GB of RAM. As well the MoBo supports up to 24GB, not 16.

Also, CBA to go find tri-channel kit, but it'll run you like $200 for the 12GB of RAM.

And Ford, St-Denis is in Canada, it would be helpful to get him prices in $CAD from Newegg.ca. That, and sometimes .ca doesn't have the same shit as .com.
