Ok price range is 2128.00$ and CANNOT go over that unless I want to wait another week and I don't feel like waiting but I put this together let me know what you guys think.
OK, I'm confused on something. You didn't specify whether you're getting one graphics card or two, and I don't feel like trying to add up all of your amounts. You did choose an SLI-capable board, so I'll assume you're getting two, but you made the mistake of selecting a 600-series. Why? You could get MSI's new 700-series platinum SLI for just about $20 more...
...(or any other 750 board) and won't have to worry about having 2/3 year old technology in a build you want to last three years. if you don't want SLI, get yourself a nice P35 chipped board for the same amount, and be set for a while. If you want to splurge a little more you could get a X38/48 MB, but I doubt it'd worth the extra money to you.
"Now if the 4870x2 was actually notably faster than the 280 for about the same price, then I might even take a chance on it. However, that won't be the case."-robx46
I own this case and it has good flow..with 2 fans you can feel air top to bottom in front, and the back fan outlet is litterally COLD air at room temp, fairly quiet too, and no weird fugly covers and whatnot. My atx board swims in it, if you wanna see an actual pic of the huge space inside...post you email addy and I will send you one.

No I'm not going sli right now maybe when my computer gets a little older and its needed. Right now it should be fine... I just like having a back up slot incase one fails.
