Intel Q6700
DFI DK X48
RAM
PSU
Hard Drive
Case

2 x 4870 $329 each ? that the price they are to launch so $668 for 2 of them when they come out, try to get visiontek they are the only ATI card manufacture that offers lifetime warranty
For the case you really should pick what fits your looks

why i picked Q6700 over Q9450 is if you want to get 4.0 GHz you would need 500FBS and thats not going to be that stable sometimes while the Q6700 need 400 FBS because it has a 10 multiplier vs the 8 on the Q9540
if going for 3.6 GHz then get the Q9450

Does this mean Q9450 suck? From my reading some reviews, many ppl say this chip has potential for the future OC.
