I believe people were saying that one 6800GT will outperform 2x6600GT in sli.

Yeah, go for the 6800GT. You should wait for the G70 to be announced (I've heard here it'll be on the 22nd) so prices on GF6 should fall...

and don't get that HD... Get a Samsung or I guess one of those Maxtor 16MB cache drives... Not a Maxtor fan myself, but everyone else here seems to love 'em.

and a NEC ND-3540A...
 
i wouldnt get corsair . dfi boards seem to be finicky with corsair for some reason . i would look into some ocz plat rev 2. keep the nec3520a i saw a review of the 3540a and it wasnt good.i would get an sli certified psu but thats just me. g70 is power hungry. :D
have any questions concerning dfi boards..ram suggestions or power supplies look at www.dfi-street.com. or having problems setting up your rig.
