Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: 1 December
Budget Range: Whatever is necessary
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming! I play everything: FPS, MMORPG, Action, EVERYTHING
Are you buying a monitor: Yes / No
Parts to Upgrade: I think I am mainly interested in upgrading the GPUs, but I read that the next generation of Intel CPUs is going to necessitate new MBs and crap.
Do you need to buy OS: Nope, using Windows 7 64bit
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Mainly use Newegg and Amazon.
Parts Preferences: No preference, although I have read that AMD has gone gangsta on Nvidia with the 7000-series GPUs.
Overclocking: Currently have my CPU OC'd to 4.5Ghz
SLI or Crossfire: Absolutely!
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080, but I am planning on running 3 1920x1080 monitors.
Additional Comments: I think I can re-use a lot of my current setup (please correct me if I'm wrong).
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Well I bought my last computer as a deployment present to myself and got to play on it for six months...only to be deployed again. So I am now going home in less than two weeks and want to order my new joints so I can see the awesomeness that will be my new crap. Any old parts left over I will donate to the old lady's computer.

If I should need to add more info, please, by all means, let me know. Basically, I have read that SLI 580s is kinda pointless because of the heat and how much better two 670s are based on power and efficiency. I got the HX850 because I knew I would SLI/Xfire eventually...I have to say that I don't know where to begin besides that point simply because due to my deployment my research has been limited. Anywho, I am excited to get this going as I am getting out of the Army and I need something to whittle away my previous high octane life. Closest I'm gonna come to that is Call of Duty! Hook a bro up? Thanks all!
