That motherboard is expensive and I can't see the benefit of it. Same with that psu not to mention it's over kill. Price match if anything. If your going for a future triple monitor w/triple vid card set up ...it's the only reason I can think of for that psu then look at the XFX psu's. They are manufactured by Seasonic as is that Corsair AX1200 you have up there, but XFX doesn't tack on the extra price like XFX does even though they are the same psu's.

thanks for the ideas, i didnt choose xfx psu because frys doesnt have them, and im getting everything from frys for just over half off. therefore i dont have to look at other websites prices. thanks for the mobo idea, the problem is, frys doesnt have asrock... if you want you can look at their website

Are you going you going to be video rendering? If not, the 3930k is complete overkill for gaming.

 

[radmanhs]

didnt you post on my other thing about this? lol, and yes i am video editing

 

[BreadWhistle]

Maybe so, maybe not. I've never payed attention at all in my life before

 

[radmanhs]

hahahaha i remember the picture, and ya, i editing, and getting that parts for like 10% over the half way price i believe. however much the employees have to buy parts for. so it will fit perfectly in my budget, if not ill make changes (the case)
