New Build Questions **I7 Intel**

[nedimredzovic]

Hello,

I have been following tomshardware for a little over a year now and have learned a ton!

Now it is time for me to build my own setup. I have been looking around for the past few months to try and find the best quality gear for my setup.


What is currently the best gaming PC for under 2grand?

CPU: Intel Core i7-920 Bloomfield 2.66GHz
Case:Antec Nine Hundred Two Black Steel
Motherboard: ASUS P6T LGA 1366 Intel X58
Memory: Whats the best quality memory for I7 920 boards?
HD: Best Solid State drive?
Video: Best video card for the money. ( Willing to spend 250-300 on a card )


Any help would be greatly appreciated!!


-Thanks

the gpu is about 50 bucks above your price range but the 5850 is amazing.
