holymoly... thats alot of money

Gabkicks

what is diffrent from the system i built? the processor choice?

[Gabkicks]

in my dream system, i didnt have the 500gig hdd or the dual layer dvd burner lol.

i had the quadcore cpu as well. but i took it out, becuase that is even too unrealistic for a makebelieve system.

I'm not big on that motherboard. I've been trouble-shooting issues with one for a friend of mine and I wouldn't advise this board to anyone personally. Yes, it costs a great deal of money. So did the previous iteration of Nvidia's Intel board and we all know about the issues that one has.

I stick to Intel chipsets for Intel boards. Sometimes what something costs is not a good indicator of ability.

[Rattle]

I agree with the intel chipset thang and i wouldnt go sli anyway but hey what can you do.

:drool:

Can you send me your used parts? If you don't need them anymore... :beer:
