The QX6700 is way overpriced, in the next few weeks it should be down to the MSRP of $999.

You also dont need that fast memory, because the motherboards cant go over DDR2-800 without overclocking.

The GPU and other components are also overpriced, I would wait a while for them to get cheaper, or by a previous generation workstation card.
