good build?
im going to be ordering pc parts today.... what is the best UK place to get stuff from and also does this build that I have put together look okay to everyone?
or would you guys get different parts for that price range? im still not too sure if i should get the 9800 gx2 or not since its so expensive and probably wont give me a huge performance boost over a 9800gtx or watever... and also is the striker II a good motherboard?? cus its also very expensive suggestions and comments please

You would be a lot happier with this I think.
From overclock.co.uk  It's 100 pounds more shipped but has an E8500 the best HSF out and Crossfire 4870's and will be much much better.

Mkay. Take off a 4870 and change the CPU to Q9450. If you absolutely cannot stand Radeon then do not get it but if I were you I would get the 4870, have about 50 pounds extra, and save it to get a second 4870 later because my list can crossfire.
If you absolutely have to get an NVIDIA card then you would have to go down to Q6700 to afford a 9800x2 but they do not currently have those in stock which means you wait or go down to Q6600 which would be a very bad idea IMHO or do multiple site purchases which is complicated and may be worse depending on shipping.

I dont think you should get the GX2, maybe a CF mobo seeing as ATI is back baby!

Or you get a 9800 GTX and a Q9450 but I think that is also a bad idea.

A 9800GTX or just the same an 8800 (GTS92) would be fine + you would save some bucks,and have you looked at the FTW 750i from evga for a board ?
