    Gaming & art build: $1600

    While I agree that SLI 460s are a pretty awesome value, wouldn't it be less attractive since I'm going 1156 and I'd be running the cards at 8x/8x? Also, I think you're right in that a dual 460 set up would be overkill for the time being. If I ended up needing more horsepower for games I'd either...

    Gaming & art build: $1600

    I think I agree with Danny here, I'm leaning toward an i5-760 set up. The money I save could probably be better spent on more ram, a solid state drive, a higher wattage/quality psu, or by grabbing the u2410 as my display. The monitor especially, since it would most likely last through several...

    Alright so given the performance of the 460 1GB in that review I can't really come up with a reason to get the 470 over it, since I don't mind overclocking. As far as sandy bridge goes, I think I'd be more interested in seeing what happens with the higher end version when it comes out probably...

    Oh and one more thing, any opinions on this X58 motherboard that was just released? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188068&cm_re=evga_x58-_-13-188-068-_-Product

    Really good build Anchen, I like it. One thing I do wonder about though is how well a 460 1GB will hold up to gaming at a higher resolution like 1900x1200? The monitor coupon code is really helpful, and I do like the u2410 especially for all the inputs it has. For $450 that's a pretty damn good...

    1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc The main purpose is gaming, with some photoshop and web design on the side. The games I'm most interested in are FFXIV, Guild Wars 2, League of Legends, and Diablo 3. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping...

    Post your workstation 2010!

    Mind sharing what monitor arm that is you're using, and how much it cost? That's a really nice set up.

    CoolerMaster 690 II Advanced

    Can anyone confirm if the basic version has removable hard drive cages like I've seen with the advanced? Also looking forward to seeing how nice an EVGA motherboard looks in this case.

    Warmouse Meta

    Good concept, but I don't like how the buttons are placed. I wish someone would release a mouse with the form factor of a razer mamba, but with the two extra buttons placed on the right side of the mouse instead of on the left mouse button. That'd be the perfect mouse for games, imo.
