So far , I like the rig. Nothing can stop it ! So fast !

Next upgrade would includes: Next year or so.....
SSD Raid-0
Mobo update ? (EX58A-UD4P) (Sata 3, usb 3, better cooling, smart 6)
Noctua Heatsink + fans + paste
Kaza Ultra 3000 rpm fans
Case change ? (it's a tight fit..)
Blu-Ray reader
Samsung Writemaster DVD (20x!)
12 gb ram, 1600mhz, 9-9-9,6-7-6, or 2000mhz ram

Upgrades? That's practically a whole new computer right there

ccabhs

haha vdek has a good point, that is like a completely new computer. Give me the parts your upgrading =D i would love it haha. I'm still running on a single core

Cr4zYH3aD

i sitll have an athlon xp2800+ and an athlon 1300mhz mobile.

Its not a new computer... we might not change the mobo. We'll see how usb 3 and sata 3 goes... let it mature.

However for SSD's, heatsink, case, fans, gfx card, ram... that's pretty much upgrades. I've heard that i7 loves low latency, so we don't know if we should keep the 1600mhz 9-9-9-24 ram and put 12 gb, or go with some 1600 mhz / 6-7-6 (mushkin) ram, or some 2000mhz ram. However since we don't overclock it 2000mhz seems overkill.

we'll probably swap the D0 for the gulftown 6 core/12 threads when it will be available..in D0. lol.

meanwhile we need to build another computer for me before december. amd 965 3.4ghz, Intel i7..we still don't know.

Before I open all my parts , I would like to get some input .

HAF 932 Case
E760 EVGA CLASSIFIED
Intel I7 920 S-Spec SLBEJ D0
CORSAIR DOMINATOR-GT 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2000
EVGA GTX295 CO-OP

2 500 GB WD BLACK ( DONT KNOW IF I WILL USE THEM YET )

ANY IDEAS ON HARD DRIVES ? SSD ?

First things first, don't post in all caps.

Secondly you should have made a new thread.

Either way, I wouldn't get a GTX295 right now, as much of an Nvidia as I am, the 5870 is on par with it, beating it in a lot of cases and will be $150+ cheaper than the 295 CO-OP edition, besides using significantly less power and being DirectX 11 compatible. The only real advantage the 295 holds is being available now, while the 5870 won't be available for a month or two.

Everything else looks alright, the new Intel SSDs are very nice though, but you can't go wrong with the WD Blacks.
