EVGA 680i. It's like $250, but it's also probably the best out there right now.

It's actually around $240-$250, but it is one of the best currently out.

Also check into the Asus Stryker 680i (I think that's what it's called...something like that)

Ya... if you dont mind spending $410 on a motherboard with practically the same features and specs...

btw, it's Striker

Maybe a PSU

EVGA 680i Mobo
Intel E6700
BFG GeForce 8800GTX
2x 1Gb DDR2 800
350 WD harddrive

IMO the price difference isnt worth it to buy the E6700 instead of the E6600.

Besides that, the rest of your build looks great.

instead of the E6700 (which you dont need, just get an E6600) with the money saved go 150GB raptor and 2 320GB seagates in RAID1 for super backup and you are HDD golden
