well for $4500 you can get quite a system, but honestly, why? it still won't play crysis all that well. no computer can. but if you still want to, then:

core i7 965, asus rampage II, 6GB DDR3 1600, 2x 4870x2, velociraptors in RAID.

but honestly, save most of that money for something more useful, or a future computer. no matter how much you spend, just remember it'll be completely outdated within months, if not weeks.

are 4870x2 in crossfire better thenthree gtxs 280s? I am assuming they scale better? I didnt really want to spring for the rampage II i don't like all the features i rather grab a evga x58. Its more simplistic.
