DONT CHEAP OUT ON MOBO.
any plans.. sli graphs. 2,3,4?
what pross u looking for?

last thing u pick is power supply and case.

power due to what the rig needs to run. more is always better.
case is dues to leng of the power supply.

for HDD i would run two 1TB instead of a single 2TB drive. give you a little back up if one were to fail.
you could find a bigger PSU.

every thing else is very nice.

as for the case i would suggest something bigger. i have a 900 and i love it but it would be a pain in the but to try and watercool it with out some serous doing.

Yeah, I was also considering theCoolermaster acts(cant remember the name but its the one you reviewed)
because I kinda like the whole tooless design, plus it will be great for working with water cooling



Also, for bud:(or anybody who wants to help)
that mobo is a pretty nice mobo IMO,
im just gunna run 1 video card for now, so that link shud do OK.
core i7 ftw?
win 7 ofcourse
Should I get more than a 750w? 1000w?.

750w is the min i would go.

you have no idea how big the ATCS 840 it would be quite easy to put the biggest system possible water cool it and have room left over.

some other cases that i love and swear by are Lian Li and Silver Stone.

they may not be as easy as the atcs to incorporate a water cooling system of the bat but its so much fun to mod and tweak it on your own and they are solid cases that kick but.

Ok i think I will go with the atcs, im not a big fan of lian-li

oh, I am also thinking of just buying this and swapping out the case for atcs and watercooling, or 900
