your parts list looks good to me - quality components there no doubt - seems like you should be about $50-100 less though, did you check combo deals and mail in rebates?

Price includes shipping+tax (tax=~$50-60) Also they have this HDMI cable stapled to my cart @ $15
I also found a 750w Antec PSU which is $50 cheaper. I think im gonna go with it. The CPU/HDD/MOBO/RAM are all in one combo with 125 instant savings... New total $885 with tax and shipping Last edited by king swift; Jul 24, 2009 at 02:58 AM // 02:58.. |

you can drop the PSU to a 550W model. a quality 550W PSU can easily handle your system load.

The problem with having a 550w PSU is that I plan on putting a second graphics card in to crossfire them with games that come out in the future.

If you can afford, and if the difference isn't that big, buy the Phenom II 955, which should overclock with no fuss at stock voltage to 3.6-3.8GHz range.
Other than that - Good gaming machine! Enjoy. |
