1500$ first build

Your PSU is a bit of overkill. Why spend $1500 and get a cheapo $10 mouse? At least go wireless...

Pick one thread and stick with it, you dont need 4

You have gotten a variety of opinions in all 3 of those do you really need a 4th? Also there will not be an official 4890x2 it will only be produced by partners so the pricing wont be standardized. Also get the 640GB caviar black its currently the same price for more storage and better speed.

And you really dont need all of those hard drives, i dont know why anyone would need that many hard drives let alone a 15 year old.

sorry i will keep this 1

i will be getting some money in soon is this is a good build tell me please

I would advise against setting up a 4 RAID0 setup.

1st: there is no need for a 2TB RAID0. You will not see that much of a benefit by doing so. You be better off running either a SSD as a your OS drive and having the 640GB as a secondary drive or wait for the WD 2TB Black to come out & run your OS from a 640GB Black.

2nd: Running that many drives in RAID0 will only increase you chance of a disk failure or disk read failure then you lost all of your data.

i just want the performance and show off

you wan to show off? i am calling troll on this

whats troll

will that do it

You don't need 4 hard drives to "show off" your computer. People will be more impressed with a more power for less theory. Don't spend your money on "add-on bling" when it adds no real benefit to your system's overall performance. Listen to what hunter315 said and save the extra money to buy something that will make a true impact to your system. $1500 is a lot to spend & save up so spend your money wisely!

hey hey hey, comon now x.x thats not nice D: im 15 too lol, i sold my xbox to get 500 bucks, and my parents are putting in the rest, i dont see whats wrong with that.

But yeah, try not to spam, google is SO awesome, for benchmarks, threads and such, its simply amazing. Im sure if you stick in "4890x2 build" you could find alot of links to many builds.

*To people asking why he has 4 HDD's in RAID 0* Seriously? Is'nt it obvious...what else for obsurd amounts of pr0n?

But yeah...4 HDD's in RAID 0, i dont recommend, if just one drive fails, your screwed, pretty much. Your obvously gonna be playing games (like me) because of the 2 4890's, so you only need 1 HDD, with that many you might even add a lil heat to your system

DONT TAKE THE RISK AND USE A STOCK COOLER!!! lol, just buy everything together once you get all the money rounded up

Yes... but if you are to spend that kind on money on a CPU cooler, I would recommend just getting the 'TRUE', which is rated pretty much the best CPU cooler by most.

check newegg? seriously type it into google or newegg, much faster than waiting for a reply, you can also try the noctua

i cant find it on newegg

thay don't sell it

i am gonna overclock to 3.2ghz what will i need i don't care about the price v10 if so i want it to be cool no water cooling

whats the best cpu cooler

and keep it cool

TRUE = Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme

Although i hate english class, seriously, get an english tutor x.x

thats no reason to why you spam posts

your keyboard doesnt make you spell 'they' 'thay' (as you spell it).

Ok, this turned out to be a wordy reply but do read it, it should help in decision making.

First off, the words WILL mean this won't happen right now. Which means that everything that's good now won't be good whenever you get your fund to build this computer. I know I was looking to built my computer for months and I made SO many changes to what I picked it's ridiculous. If you don't have the money, don't set things in stone. Get a good idea of what you want this computer to do and from there decide.

BIGGEST FACTOR. What will you be doing with the computer? I would suspect you will be gaming.
If that was your first choice, ditch the i7 and go for more graphics horsepower.

I bet you my GTX295 + AMD X3 720 ($765) would beat an i7 + Radeon 4890 ($750). The interesting thing here is that those two combos cost nearly the same (Price including CPU+GPU+Mobo). If you want to game, it's all about GPU! Granted Crysis is an exception with a ton of physics it runs best with an i7. Also, RTS games require more CPU but it's not as big of a deal.

I'll stop you here again, I would not recommend getting that Asus monitor. I'm using the 23.6'' version they offer and i am not impressed. TERRIBLE veiwing angles. Look into Acer.

I also noticed people commenting on getting a better keyboard and mouse. Screw it! I still use PS2 keyboard and a rollerball mouse and they work perfectly. This is where you save money to put it towards something more useful.

Again, people have already said it before. You do not need that much power. A 600w PSU would easily suffice.

Theres always this case and PSU combo as well. Saves you a few more dollars to put to a better GPU. That corsair 750w handles my GTX295 very easily, btw. I can also attest to the Coolermaster HAF. Wonderful case!! Keeps things very cool.

Coolermaster HAF + Corsair 750w PSU

Don't forget about shipping costs! Which also leads me to piont out, look for combo deals and free shipping! They will also help you save where you need to get that little extra to afford something better. I built my first computer with a budget of $1500 and I could play Crysis on Very High settings at 1920x1080. So can you.

Forget what people say, go ahead and put linux on it. I triple boot with Ubuntu 9.04, XP Pro, and Windows 7 RC. OH! If you are installing multiple operating systems, DO NOT FORGET to unplug ALL hard drives not being used for the install before installing an new OS. It will save you quite the headache!!!!

If you really want a good cooler, look into Thermalright. Not thermaltake, Thermalright! I'm using their Ultra 120 Extreme the best cooler, not being a fanboy but google the ultra 120 extreme. Nothing but pure awesome. Don't forget to google! Do lots of research!!
