1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc

2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$0-$2500
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.

5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.

8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
in the next 30 days
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
Raid 1 with SSD and HDD Sata 6gbs/etc. pretty solid on the x79 series i think the ws has onboard thunderbolt but should i go for stock x79 and upgrade with pci card later?
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If so, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
no i'm thinking windows 7 ultimate though...


So is this setup too advanced for me? not advanced enough? do i need a six core processor or is quad all good? can you raid 1 an ssd to a hdd? do I need the WS x79 or is stock/pro the better choice? will all these components work together? Do i need additional
cooling? where can i save here? please advise!

Thanks all!

I'd personally go for the 3770K over the 3820 - the only reason you'd go X79 is if you're working with ridiculously large files and need the higher RAM capacities. For the most part you won't - the two CPUs are about on par with each other performance wise.

As far as the GPU goes - no point in purchasing a 570 anymore. If you want NVIDIA - go with a 660TI or 670, but the Radeon 7950 is far better than the 660TI is.
