Actually i've decided what to buy a long time ago.. and i just didn't have the money for it.

If any of you check my profile you will find i am located in egypt and prices here r like triple the prices.. except for GPUs and Antec stuff cause we have certified retailers here "FINALLY"

Well I've a friend in Houston Texas who i wire the money to and he bought the stuff for me off newegg and is gonna ship out monday, usualy stuff takes like 6-8 working days to arrive here so you can't imagine how hard i am pushing him to speed up.

My build is not something fancy but believe me if i buy these components from here i will pay like twice the price.

I got:
CPU: Intel Q6600 it's for around 200$ in here
Mobo: I got GA-EP45-UD3P "New Egg" (couldn't find it here only R and they cost the same)
Ram: I got OCZ Reapers 2x2GB @1066Mhz "From a member Here" (best ram in egypt is simply *****)
GPU: I got the xfx gtx260 while it was on 5% sale from new egg "it truly cost 2.5 times its price in the usa here)
CPU Cooling: A close friend of mine got me a Cooler Master V8 as present
Case: Antec 900 (getting it from here 140$---> Fair Price shipping will be crazy)
PSU: Corsair 650TX "NEW EGG" (Antec 550EA is like 100$ here)
Screen: i have that lame 19" LG flat CRT but my Gf is getting me a nice 22" on in my BD

Now i am not sure if the cases here r 900 2 or 1 but either way my rotary tool is ready and i will check tomorrow for the circular cutters.

My only concern is the 12V 8 pin connecter for the mother board that it won't reach the mobo.. and i can't find the extension here and i cant wait to order it online so it would delay my shipment more.

Also i want to ask something.. Do i need longer Sata cables to be Bent behind the mobo's tray to reach the HDDs and Optical drives or the stock ones will be enough. Got 2 of each.

Thanks guys and i surely keep images coming as soon as i get my stuff

The sata cables that come with the motherboard will be fine.
The 12v 8 pin may reach it may not.
Nice build by the way.

Ramzinho

thanks a lot

If you can find any case mod/ water-cooling website that ship to where you live they may have 8pin extender.

Looks pretty good, you have almost have the same build as me. Except for the GFX card and you have 1066 reapers, but mine can overclock far beyond 1066, so its all good.

CHECK MY SIG FOR Antec 900 Modding!

i've been there, they all require paypal and that's not yet available in my country.

Allen my friend in Houston simply buys me the stuff i chose and ships via usps big flat rate box if i order stuff to fit in.. if not we use priority mail and it is not that expensive. and of course using moneygram is a BLESS

i can't find that piece here but may be i will dig more and try to find it.. still have like 10 days before the stuff arrives.

Thanks guys for your help...

i read tons of reviews. it looks awesome.. i would have gone for the R but.. i like the idea that when the GTX300 is out every thing else will drop like 50$ then i can sli

Hah, I used to feel the same as you did about prices when back when I was in Dubai, then came to Montreal and saw the prices were just as bad or even worse
