Nice comp, but for that kind of money, I'll be getting a used Honda CBR600.
With a custom paint job of course.
But TBH I really don't know how good of a comp I can come up with. _________________

CASE: $269
Lian-Li C-V2000B PLUS II Black Aluminum
This case is probably bigger than your house. Starting with the inside out, it is like a mansion for your sexy computer. As a keen observer of case construction and design, I can tell you flat out, this one dominates.
MOBO: $259.99
eVGA nForce 680i SLI
That thing is the nastiest fucking board ever. Good features in the software and hardware. 3 PCIx16 slots for me to own your fuckin' face in.
CPU: $1,499.00
Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Kentsfield 2.66GHz 2 x 4MB L2 Cache
Well... no shit. If you're going to go top dog, go top dog. If you get the best motherboard, then you better have the best processor. Look, the motherboard is like the throne and the CPU is the king. A good throne needs a good king. Okay, really, it's the other way around, but you get the point. Sure it's pricey, but it's the best available.
GPUx3: 1919.97 (639.99 * 3)
PNY GeForce 8800GTX
This video card is actually your bastard father. If it wasn't so huge, I'd buy three. Oh wait, I can do that because I'm going to build a custom cooling system - thus I can remove that fan. How bout that.
I'll start off by configuring two to run in SLI. Now you may already know I don't like SLI. Yet, I have a lot of money, so I can not only buy SLI - but I can use it as it was intended to be used - hi-res. Anyone see where I'm going?
The third one will be used to power two local LCD screens.
That's it for now. I've already burnt a ton of cash. Prepare to continue to be fucked tomorrow _________________ is now -=|CT|=- Frothy Mixture

top notch..... really my comp is now 2 months old and runs all the games in highest gear.... and who cares if it does 80 or 300 FPS, you'll never ever see the difference....and too anyone here who says so: your lying, since TFT's only go up too max 75 Herz refresh, which is 75 frames
oh and you guys are so lacking:

GPU:
PNY GeForce 8800GTX (x2)
This video card is actually your bastard father. If it wasn't so huge, I'd buy three. Oh wait, I can do that because I'm going to build a custom cooling system - thus I can remove that fan. How bout that.
HDD:
Western Digital 75GB(15K RPM)(X2):
This little bitch will rock your socks, litterally, cause it makes so much noise that even a good sound dampening case won't fix it, but hey, in RAID 0 it will out load everyone
Seagate 750GB
So you can store your pr0.....games
PSU:
Enermax Galaxy 1000W
THE heart of your system, without it, it won't run that's why I've came up with this, the best of the best and it needs it's own group
RAM:
Corsair XMS2 Dominator Twin2X2048-8888C4DF (x2)
4GB of the worlds fastest memory ever! With this you'll even have 3 extra fans, but hey, you are the fastest
what all of this costs? I have no idea, I could search it up in euros....
Anyways I guess over $5000 so have fun this is on of the best setups I can make(prolly even better if I search a better Mobo )

The only reason anyone would want to reach 300 fps is for bragging rights. _________________ -=|CT|=- Raed

well, hoistly, just bought a $3,400 laptop.......and the comp i built 2 years ago is still bad ass.....
in a real life situation........i think i would just get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103545
to replace my ageing 3500+, and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130072
to replace my old ASUS 6600 TOP GT
maybe in a year, i might build something like
another http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130072
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820145168
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131025
may get an intel board insted though.......have not made up my mined on that yet
i am going to cross my fingers and hope that my 620w psu will have enough to power the 4 HDDs i have, the sound card, the 7 case fans, expantion cards, and all the new stuff i am going to add (that i am listing here) if not, i will get a PC 1kw psu
EDIT: forgot to add my CPU and the new better sound card i will get for this system
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819115003
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16829102191
this sould make my kilipsch 5.1's sound like heven on earth.........or hell depending on what type of rap or games i am playing
