Re: Extreme gaming system build/upgrade Help

Processor.
Intel Core i7-980X Extreme Edition Gulftown 3.33GHz 6 x 256KB L2 Cache 12MB L3 Cache LGA 1366 130W Six-Core

»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···19115223

Heat sync.
If not going to do any OCing and the CORSAIR Cooling Hydro Series is not needed then what would be a good cooler? I thought for what one getting the price was not bad.

Mother Board.
ASUS Rampage III Extreme LGA 1366 Intel X58

»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···13131642

PSU. Using the one he has.
CORSAIR HX Series CMPSU-1000HX 1000W ATX12V 2.2

»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···Corsair%

Memory.
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)

»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···20231311

Hard Drive.
Western Digital VelociRaptor WD6000HLHX 600GB 10000 RPM 32MB

»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···22136555

Video.
EVGA 015-P3-1480-AR GeForce GTX 480 (Fermi)

»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···-Product

AS far as doing any SLI he went that route with the motherboard he has now and had no luck doing it on his own.

Case. Keeping his old case.
Antec Performance One P180.
»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···11129154

He tells me that he still has his Arctic Silver 5 but it would be about four years old?????? I say new.

Looking at about $2319 give or take. He will not buy from newegg cause of the tax thing in the State of Tn. That is saving him just over $200.

Now let's fine tune this. Am not sure of the memory or the motherboard.

Thanks.

Well I'm done with this thread, I said what I thought..that there what you just typed is just stupid.

This is where the crap about PC gaming being expensive comes from, people saying you need that to run games when you truly don't.

This guy is wasting his money beyond belief IMO.

Sorry you feel that way just like the way you feel about his/mine case.

How did you sat it?

To the OP:

That case you have. I honestly wouldn't go with that thing, it looks horrible for air flow, and with all this heavy equipment it would more than likely run hot.
Looks are deceiving. To each their own but as for this guy it is just a bit more than a game but then that is again is deceiving. Sorry you didn't get that.

BTW....... you might want to stop and look at what you just typed then ask your self what was stupid.

Thanks for your input and time.
