(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So, I just got some huge check for $5000 from some company who gives scholarships, and I already have a 100% full ride from Florida Bright Futures. Anyway, to sum it up quickly, I am pocketing all of that money.

Here is the current build, if anyone has anything I should add, let me know.

With that set up you might want a few extra fans.

you might want to think about a SSD (solid state drive) to put your operating system on nothing else and have the 2 terybyte drive a sata 6GB instead of sata 3GB.

why have you got 2 power supplys on there go for the 910watt one

Another gpu would really spark it of in the graphics department(not neccesary but would be wanted).

Does the case come with all the fans 2 at the back 2 at top 3 at front they might try to make you buy separately check it. Would go for some sort of extra cooling to see reviews of how cool it gets kept with the standard stuff and see if anyone else has watercooling wtc and saver the rest jsut in case.

anyway if i was building this rig the i would be asking myself these questions

Hmmm..
Thanks, I didn't realize I selected 2 power supplies, and I have already updated to a 1200 Watt power supply.

I have also added a second GeForce GTX 580.

I am now looking into SSD's.
If I get this Intel 120 Gig SSD, could I get rid of my RAM? o.O

Just keep the RAM, it's not that much extra on that build. Not sure how keen you are on top of the line, but you could pocket quite a bit more if you substitute some of the more expensive parts for non-top of the line.

I would pick the You must login or register to view this content. over the DF-85 though. Not too much more than your current case, and quite a bit better in my opinion.

Wait are you buying a HD PVR? These are meant for consoles, I hope you know that right?
