As title said, im buying a new rig. I just sold my main rig and going to use that money towards a new rig. Please give any suggestions or opinions. Thanks!
Heres the item list:
eVGA 780i FTW LGA775
e8600/q9450/q9650 (gonna play around with these to see which performs better for what i need)
G.Skill 2x2GB 1066 DDR2
Seagate 1.5TB 32MB Cache SATA HD
Corsair TX750 PSU
Xigmatek S-1283 with bolt down kit
eVGA GTX260
Lian Li PC-7F
Samsung 22x dvd burner SATA
Sunbeam Rhoebus fan controller (oh my gosh, these LEDs are like strobe lights. so bright. any suggestions on a different one around same price ?)
Currently price tag for everything above except the xigmatek heatsink (not bolt down kit), its 1053.12 before $90 MIR. heatsink is like 38 bux after shipping with $15 mir. final cost as of now would be around $989?? last time i calculated. im willing to go over budget a LITTLE bit if the change is a considerable change.
i have the processors already. rest needs to be bought. I have a $1000 budget. I can spend a little more for the mean time prior to rebate return. But i want the final cost to be around $1000.
Thx
*edit* oh i dont need monitor, keyboard/mouse. Using my 24" Dell 2407WFP-HC and previous hardware. Only sold tower.
