I just designed this system around these requirements: no budget and best system possible. I really want to overclock the living daylights out of this system. I believe that I have it down, but am unsure of a few things and I know no other place better than here to get input!
Mainboard: ASUS M3A79-T Deluxe AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX
Processor: AMD Phenom 9950 2.6GHz BE
Graphics: CrossfireX SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB 512-bit (256-bit x 2)
Memory: I'm undecided what would be best, I had initially thought about two Corsair Dominator DDR2-1066 4G (2x2GB).
HDD: RAID Western Digital VelociRaptor 300GB 10000 RPM SATA
PSU: ABS Tagan BZ Series 1300W ATX12V / EPS12V
NIC: Killer NIC M1
PhysX: Yes or No?
Sound: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series
For Processer cooling I want to use the CoolIT Freezone Elite and for graphics cooling I want to use a CoolIT Freezone Elite but with the 4870x2 blocks. As a little test of skill, I want to get a PowerMac G5 case and mod it to fit all of this. Suggestions, comments, questions, concerns? Thanks!
