What do you think of this build. I have noticed there are not a lot of LGA 1366 heat sink cpu coolers on newegg. do you think more will come out?
I have plans to possible get another 4870x2 in the future and run them xfire so for only 20 bucks more i can get the antec 1000w psu. I intend to use this for gaming on a 1900x1200 monitor (far cry 2, crysis, fallout 3, etc). Not a lot of plans to overclock, probably wont need to initially anyways, although i have heard the i7 are a little bit tricky to overclock if you dont know what you are doing. My budget is about 1600-1700 for the computer. I plan to build a few days after black friday, just to see if there are any price drops (in particular ddr3 ram, its very expensive now, but necessary with the i7 rig).
