what happened to your 800 dollar budget???
Your at 1,125 now.
Might as well go with core i7.

My cousin asked me to put together a build for him so I came up with the following.

He is happy with that beast build and he will be getting it soon when he get his college graduation money. I'm helping him put it together in a couple of months, and I can't wait lol!

Yeah, it's the Radeon 4890 that bumps it up that high but if he went with the 4850, it would be ~100 dollars cheaper.

Anyways, good luck with your build and I hope that none of your stiff comes DOA.

$1100 including mouse, keyboard and monitor, that is still a solid build.

Edit: The memory for some reason only scored as 5.5 but everything else was scored as 5.9 on the Rating thing, any reason this might be? And how to make it score a 5.9? Links below:

RAM - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231166
MOBO - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128359

I'd like to preface this by saying I have both Medusa AND a big rig in my computer :P .
The cords will almost certainly change (tips welcome on how to manage) the next few days. I'm new so any tips are welcome and appreciated.

Not a whole lot of pics, everything went fine except the stupid stock CPU fan > although I got it eventually. The next biggest thing to do now is manage the cords obviously.

Right now I need to get it connected to the internet (probably going to connect laptop to it as laptop has wireless) and then get some pics from there.









Edit 2: Absolutely in LOVE with the look of the card
