Gaming Rig @1000 using i7950 without VC

Last response: in Systems
Share


APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Money on Hand
BUDGET RANGE: USD $1000 for the build less the card since I already have GTX 480

USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming SC2, Mafia.. Doing some programming and photoshop

CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY:
480 GTX

OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: I'm eyeing an i7 950 for the processor. Case can be temporary cause I can buy a better one later.

PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Newegg.com
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: USA

PARTS PREFERENCES: I would like to get for the best rated instead of the most expensive for most parts.

OVERCLOCKING: Possible SLI in the future.

MONITOR RESOLUTION: I can always buy another monitor or borrow one.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I am unsure if SLI is best since i'll already be using a 480. By the time, I choose to go dual, there setup might be obsolete.
