The total with shipping comes down to $1030.
I'm a little over my max budget, but I think it's worth it.
I'm going to get another GTX 260 for SLI Mode in a month or two, would the antec earthwatts 650W have enough juice? Or would it really be necessary to spend $50 more and buy an earthwatts 750W?
I would dump that Nvidia chipset and get a better/cheaper board. This board is xfire compatible and can save a few $$.
