Well after many months of waiting, thinking, changing my mind and being unable to make a choice i said fuck it and i pulled the trigger and bought everything for my new system.

I should have all the parts by this friday.

Here it is:

Antec p180
Enermax Liberty 620watt PSU
Asus A8N-SLI Premium
AMD Opteron 170
Scythe Ninja
(2x) XFX 7800 GT's
(2x) WD 250GB sata 2 HD's
2GB OCZ Platinum (2.5-3-2-5)
(2x) NEC 3550A DVD Burners


i will add some extra cooling and some aftermarket coolers for the GPU's later. Currently waiting for the VF-900
I would like to buy another Dell2001FP to add to the two i have for a tri-monitor display. 3x 20.1" LCD goodness
I am going to reuse my Logitech Z-5500's.


All i have left to buy right away is a new Mouse/Keyboard combo. Any suggestions?
Currently using logitech mx duo, but i can't find those in stock anywhere now.


Pics soon to follow.
 
Nice rig!

I went with the Saitek keyboard and a g7. The saitek was perfect for me b/c I didn't want a huge keyboard, and the g7 is amazing.

nice specs... the CPU itself is probably worth more than my entire rig :p

THANKS!

best part is i got the proc on the super cheap. I guess i was at the right place at the right time. i hear AMD is raising those prices up soon and dropping on the X2's.

If the prices start to soar on the opterons i might sell it and just get an X2. I don't mind making a few bucks here or there. :)
 
nearly forgot i will be getting an X-Fi as soon as i get a few more $ saved up.

thanks...It's been a long time coming.

i see you got the VF-700. how is that working out for you? is alot quieter than stock ? How big of a temp drop.

i want to wait for the vf-900, but then again the 700's are not really outdated yet.
 
Parts are all in!!! :)

it was so nice to come home from school and see 5 huge boxes waiting for me.


more to come as it takes shape.

What are you going to name it?
 
that is a really good question. I was calling this project optimus prime...but that is more than likely a very overused name...

i was thinking maybe Polaris... but i dunno. I guess once everything is all in, and woking then i'll have a better idea of it's personality.

I'm open for some cool names though

With the SLI setup, I'd go with something that reflects that.

"Two-Fisted Fury," perhaps?
 
something to think about...i think i will use some name from greek mythology.. .
