Another New i7 Build
I've been doing a lot of homework on this build, but I wanted to have you guys check it through and see if there's any changes that can be made. Going to buy this in about 2 weeks and my budget is $1500, but most likely will be higher
__________________ . I will be purchasing the necessary parts first then any extras later. Im going to pick up as much as I can at Fry's & Micro Center to save on some shipping. Cooler Master HAF Intel Core i7 920 Nehalem 2.66GHz Foxconn BloodRage XFX Radeon HD 4890 Corsair 850w Power Supply G.SKILL 6GB (3 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Western Digital Caviar Black 640GB LG 22X DVD±R DVD Burner Black SATA Prolimatech Megahalem OCZ Freeze TIM Logitech G11 Gaming Keyboard Logitech MX518SE Mouse steelseries iron.lady Siberia Circumaural Full-Size Headset - Red Panaflo-M For CPU Scythe S-Flex SFF21G 120mm Case Fan x4 To replace the side 230mm Antec 120mm Red LED Case Fan Sunbeam Rheobus-Extreme Fan Controller steelseries QcK Mouse Pad Logisys Computer Single Red Meteor Light Kit x2 Total ~$1600 Not including shipping or taxes (I live in CA  )Parts I know that are sold at Fry's or MC for similar prices: i7 920, CM HAF, Optimus Prime, G11, MX518, & the Tricool. Any other parts? Im gunna see how the prices are on the GT300/5800s are when they come out, so I might either Crossfire the 4890s or sell mine and get one of the newer cards. Also gunna get a 24" at the same time. As for the headphones, does anyone have any experience with the Siberias? I have tried them on and they very comfortable and I liked them. Other ones I was looking at: Sennheiser HD-212 or HD-555s (Little over budget, but I might be willing to pay the extra) + the Zalman clip on mic.

Go with the HD-555s, only $10 more (not counting the mic) but the sound should be so much nicer.
