I'm planning to get a i7 860 once its released sooner or later. Here are the parts I'm looking into.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

CPU: Intel Core i7 860
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-P55-UD4 (Or Other who knows)
Memory: G.SKILL F3-16000CL9D-4GBRH Ripjaws PC3-16000 4GB 2X2GB DDR3-2000 CL9-9-9-27 Memory Kit
Or: G.SKILL F3-16000CL9D-4GBTD Trident PC3-16000 4GB 2X2GB DDR3-2000 CL9-9-9-24 Memory Kit
CPU Cooler: Prolimatech Mega Shadow Deluxe Edition or the: Prolimatech Megahalems (Others???)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The rest ill be using in the i7 build like for example my PSU,GPU,Case,HD,etc...

Just got to sell the rest once I get all the parts.

Can't wait for pics. I'll be doing the same choices with the exception for the ram. I'll be using Corsair for my build.

Also, quick question. For the first PCI-e x1 slot, will a Sound card even fit with the heatsink right below it? Seems my titanium or anything will probably not fit. If that's the case then I'll have to switch to another mobo.

Should work fine. The X-Fi Titanium is single slot so you're good. It may come close but still fit. Also if you don't plan on running SLi the Titanium will work in a PCI-E x16 slot.

It will be very interesting to see how well the new socket overclocks!!
