Hey everyone, i recently won a decent amount of cash on a scratch off (who knew you could win on one of those) and decided to take that money and invest it in a new Gaming computer. Basically i am looking for a beast of a machine, but trying to cut corners when possible. I have most of the machine picked out but im a little shakey on what Mobo to go with. Any way here are the specs. please feel free to comment, if i am better off shaving or spending a little more to increase overall quality.
cpu - Intel Q6600 Prob going to OC to 3.0 or even 3.33
Motherboard - Thinking Asus P5Q Not sure if that is best option though
Video cards - 2X diamond 4870 Radeon in crossfire
PSU - Rosewell RX950-D-B 950W is this Overkill?
Case - Cooler Master Cosmos 1010
Hard Drives - 2x Western Digital 500gb Caviar SE17
Memory - 4gb G.Skill DDR2 800(PC2 6400) Is 8gb overkill?
After Market Cooler - Zalman 9500A
Disk drives - Two disk drives not sure yet..DVD burner/lightscribe
And prob going to go with Windows Vista home edition premium X64
Here is my cart - http://secure.newegg.com/Shopping/ShoppingCart.aspx?Submit=view
Any suggestions to help make this rig better/make my first build easier would be a God send.
Thanks
