Newegg Wishlist

Ofcourse the wishlist is missing a couple of things, mostly because newegg doesent have it in stock. Its missing a XFX 4890 XXX which is around 210$, a Thermalright True Black CPU cooler, its mounting bracket, and ofcourse the montior, HP w2408h

Ending price should be around 1500-1600, depending on the deals i get, (like microcenters i7 920) and stuff like that.

I decided i dident need the format since theres really no need, i know what im getting and any suggestions would be nice.

There is no reason to get an X58 board or CPU now, unless you intend to SLI two GTX 285s or higher.

You can grab a combo here:

I do plan on upgrading to a 58XX in crossfire in time, so that answers one question.

Yes i have though of the HAF 932, 922, 922 is smaller and i do plan on having some epic cable managment, HAF 932 is'nt as stylish as the antec 1200 ;]

I picked deathadder because its shiny, obvously doesent everyone :P


That SAMSUNG Black 22X doesent support lightscribe

Oh and how can i forget about the thermal paste!! Damn thank you for reminding me lol. Instead if arctic cooling mx-2 i think im gonna go with MX-3, thats practically the top of the line ATM

I forgot to mention atleast the X58 will be upgradable, i9's will be X58 compatible

hey, we'll see how things turns out. Looked at bench marks the i7 is a bit better than the i5

Oh why cant the i5 MB's run crossfire or Sli quite as well?
