Man I'm glad to see there's a section dedicated to this, as I'm sure this would be annoying elsewhere. (priced off newegg, after mail in rebates)
I'm looking to create a do it all pc - Running crysis 1920 X 1200 high/veryhigh settings, but also running 3d cad/cam as well as CS3 (hence the quad). Will probably run vista ult. 64 bit.
Asus Rampage Formula x48 ----------- 280
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 ---------------195
Asus HD 4850 ---------------------------- 160
Asus HD 4850 + Silverstone 750w ---- 310 (combo deal)
Antec Nine Hundred Mid-Tower -------- 80
G Skill 4gb (2x 2gb) ----------------------105
Samsung Spinpoint F1 500GB --------- 70
Westinghourse 24" (8ms _ 500 cd/m2 _ 1000:1) -------- 400
Future - Swiftech H20-220 Water Cooling (2x 120mm radiator fans)
Some sorta blueray player at some point.
My main Questions:
PSU - Is it powerful enough with a good margin for more hdd's?
Is the Antec 900 mid-tower big enough for a crossfire setup / water cooling kit?
Will stock cooling suffice at factory clocks, until I go water cooled?
Any general comments/ suggestions? I'm open to anything.
