You'd be better off with 4GB of RAM these days: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231145
Or since you don't need much FSB with a multiplier that high, the 3-3-3-8 timings are tempting on these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820141241 And maybe a single 500GB HDD, the 7200.11 series is the fastest 7200rpm now: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...88&Tpk=7200.11

4x 3870's? That PSU will not be enough.....1KW for that sort of GPU setup

Ya know moms can be a real pain! Especially when you get a new computer and there so paranoid that they won't let you install a GPU though they know you love computers... I want to be 18 right about now I wrote that about a year ago. Now look at my first rig after I found a job in my signature! I love buying things for myself and not waiting for someone to give stuff to me.

Those cards don't use much power. If a Corsair 620W can handle GTX SLI then the SS 750W would be good for 4x 3870's.
