Hi Roman9009 here,
I am planning on purchasing the parts post Christmas, probably late December to early January.
My budget is 1500 to 1700 dollars to spend on a gaming PC.
I am planning on using it for high range games such as bf3, skyrim and Guild wars 2 (when it releases) while also using it for net surfing, torrents and office programs.
Parts that i currently wont be requiring is a mouse and speakers
I live in Melbourne, Australia so im planning on purchasing most if not all components from retail.
The site i will be using is Centercom.com.au as i will probably purchase from them.
I would like to buy an Intel cpu but use an AMD gpu.
I would like to overclock despite having no prior experience.
As for Crossfire i would like the utility for upgrade capability so for now i plan on using a single gpu but later on when the gpus price drops i would like to be capable of running crossfire.
In terms of resolution i would like 1920x1200.
I plan on buying the cooler master storm enforcer with windows so that i can add maybe one or two red cold cathodes.
I think i will wait for SSD to drop in price before i purchase them.

I would like to read your opinions on my selection,
But i would also like ask whether i would be capable of running cross fire despite the graphics card size and motherboard size, and on top of that whether i would be able to add an extra sound card in future
