1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Mainly gaming, school work, folding@home, interwebs etc
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$3000 but could do more
3) Where do you live?
Tennessee, but have a friend who lives in Kentucky I can ship to so as to avoid sales tax (10%)
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
Case, mobo, CPU, ram, video cards, power supply, optical, solid state boot drive, HHDs, Monitors
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
keyboard, mouse, headset
6) Will you be overclocking?
I'd like to do some moderate overclock work
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
I would prefer 3 23" monitors (don't have them yet)
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Plan to order on Monday
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? etc.
CrossfireX USB 3.0 SATA III would all be nice
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If so, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Need to get a 64-bit OS
Here's my list so far:
Silverstone FT02B-W
Silverstone Strider Gold 850W PSU
Asus P67 Sabertooth
i7 2600K
Mushkin Enhanced Silverline 8GB DDR3 1333
Possibly 2 HD 6950s to flash? Still unsure on GPU setup
Thinking about a couple Samsung Spinpoint for hard drives, not sure about the SSD though
3x Dell U2311H (not sure which site to order from, Amazon seems to have them the cheapest at 309 even though I've seen people say they can be had for 269?)
Cooler Master Hyper 212+
All that totals up to about $3000, or should anyway. Any comments or suggestions to help me out with the missing parts?
