I plan to have a monster build (to me). I have put this together, knowing prices will decrease..however, how much do you think it will? I plan to add a Dell 30" monitor to this as well. Is it a good build? I realize new things might come out, but this is just something to look forward to.


Wish List
 
I'm gonna guess that this is a not-so-subtle pointless attempt to prove a point by jabbing at people who post builds way too early.
 
Wait until next year. Seriously.

Newer, better parts will be out by that time, and they may be cheaper than what you're considering right now.
 
needs major changes, like dropping the 975 in favor of the 920, subbing in a Vertex SSD for the WD Green drive and adding a WD Caviar Black for storage..

Diamond brand card? Go with XFX for double lifetime warranty and $50 bucks off each card.

I won't even touch the 4gbx6 RAM, which is really unnecessary/overkill unless you do serious image/video editing (even then..).

In all, no real point in estimating price drop of an unbalanced and poor build. I guess its fun to slap together a $$$$$ build, but you could get much more value for much less money.
 
Or, you could wait until next year... when you are actually planning on buying everything.

Look at it this way: You'll have plenty of time to do a lot of research. ;)
 
Okay, so...
Obviously this is not even near a thinking of being final wish list. This is at least how powerful I want my build to be next year...obviously the processor is completely overpriced...obviously there is excessive amounts of RAM, and obviously I built this at 4am, and obviously I will be choosing new parts around this time next year.
However...Diamond is my ATI card of choice, I want at least 8gb RAM (Corsair is RAM of choice), a triple or quad crossfire motherboard, 4tb of space, and a Blu-Ray burner. I've always wanted an Armor as well...
 
Obviously, there's no need to make a thread yet. Obviously, its better to just keep your wishlist however you like it for now. Obviously, get opinions from others a year from now, when you're ready to buy. Since this is just for you to look forward to, our opinions shouldn't matter yet. :p
 
Memory is a terrible choice, it's old, expensive and the wrong voltage for i7. It's the stuff that was released for the x48 chipset.
