Items still needed -
7.1 surround sound speakers
Water cooling system http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/coliki.html something that looks like that is best only with out the hoses, would prefer all pipes and the silver things tht make them turn and stuff(sorry dont know the name of that part)

http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=16548351 this is my current build and this is the headset i want http://www.astrogaming.com/headsets/a40-headsets/a40-headset-astro-edition

NOTE: the only reason im getting those radeon cards is to wait until the 680s come out then i will replace them with those and put the radeons in another computer and yes i know some of you will say its overkill but i do have a use for this, for my work, and i have 7500 in newegg gift cards

I must say, that is one hell of a system you have there my friend. To be honest though, as most other members here will say it as well, you might as well go with this processor:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116492

It is pretty much the same thing as the extreme edition, although it is much cheaper and will give you some more money to work with.

yeah i might, i have a lot of money to work with though since im not really paying for any of it, its coming from the gift cards and my company lol, so how does all that stuff look though? good to go? and i just need help with those two things i listen and i will order! :)

There are a lot of threads and everyone may not have anything to contribute.

I agree on the different CPU, since that can be overclocked and be really fast.

I would say a lot of this stuff is overkill, but hey, I think you wanna spend this money.

That Power Supply is overkill for up-to 3 7970s in CF, but for 2, it is exceptionally more-so. Drop down to an 850W unit.

Get lower profile RAM. Those tall heat-sinks make installing third party HSFs hard to install.

Otherwise, phenomenal build!

If you are planning to upgrade to quadSLI GTX 680's, then you are good there. What I would do is get a GTX560 or HD6870 to tide you over until you get the 680's as they should be out any time now.
