Monitor - Viewsonic Vx922[tigerdirect ]
Mobo - eVga 680 sli mobo [zipzoomfly.com]
Processor - E6600 [ newegg ]
PSU - OCZ 700 watt psu [ newegg ]
Hard Drive - [2]36GB Raptors ,160GB Hitachi Deskstar7200rpm [ newegg ]
Video Card - MSI 8800 gtx [ zipzoomfly.com ]
Sound Card - Creative Labs Extreme gamer Xi-Fi [ zipzoomfly.com ]
CPU Cooler - Asus Silent Knight CPU Cooler
Memory - 2GB Crucial DDR2-1000 [newegg]
Case - Lian-Li 1000B [frozencpu.com]
Opical Drive - HP 18X DVD-R/RW Drive

Well, i fixed up this computer, ill add a new mouse, headset , lets see what this beast could dooo
I would not go with this system.
  1. Do not get the 680i board. They are very buggy and problematic. Go with the P5B or i965.
  2. Do not get the Hitachi HDD, stick to WD and Seagate, with WD being the best.
  3. Don't do business with TigerDirect. Their business practices are questionable. Stick to newegg.com and Ziopzoomfly.com
  4. Why the case from frozencpu? Their prices are way to high.

Please practice common grammar and spelling rules. The forum TOS require it.

The 680i chipset is full of issues. The [paid] reviews looked great, until actual people got them. They don't work quite as well.

I promise you, WD HDDs are better than Hitache.

Stating forum TOS is not disrespectful. I am helping him out with his system, but I would like for this forum to be as professional as possible. Grammar is important for that.

I am not sure what you mean the second part of your post. I do like to have short, precise, and straight to the point posts. They are however, not "cold." I am interested in helping other people and friendly debates on components, not increasing my e-penis.
