get a 320mb edition of the 8800gts... it is way cheaperHoly crap, if I can actually sell this for 500 or more, I can get:
E6400
2gb corsair xms2 ddr2 675 (lots of reviews say its good for ocing because of 4 cas latency)
8800gts 640 mb version
Gigabyte DS3 motherboard
ocz gamexstream 700w (holy quad rails)
Pray that this sells......
and for the specs that you will use, get a 600w gxs
dont go overboard on the stuff because 700watt is enough for 4 quad cores and a 8800gtx sli system..
down-scale some stuff and get some different stuff.. list the costs for memory because frys has ddr2 800 by ocz for 135$
and your motherboard will way bottleneck the cpu and gpu overclocking with its northbridge
get a 680i for 200$, downscale the 8800gts to 320mb (100$ saved) and then that should be enough to bump u to 680i
this is my computer research file: should give u some ideas
