Only thing I already had was the mouse, also need a monitor. Would like an LED one, not one that really grabbed my eye though..
 
Half of those links don't work anymore. Lol just saying. But it all looks amazing. I bet your paying a lot because it's Intel and you got some pretty good stuff there.
 
Sorry about the links, I think they messed up since I grabbed them from within my cart... my bad.

I wanted that CPU, and the MOBO is the only one that matched the color scheme, just so happened to be the most expensive bastard...

The case, I don't need it that big I just like how it looks and it has front 3.0 usb ports

I will get blu ray in future
 
Tell me how that i7 875K works out for ya. I've got the same CPU (got it for 200$)

Though, I have to be honest, I haven't heard the best about it. Hopefully, it's a bit better than the i7-860.
 
lol I haven't ordered the monitor yet

I've seen the CPU at 4.3 on other forum an was told to have fun with it that I'll enjoy!

Thanks fury, soon as I get settled with it I'll consider.

Rwm I already went over budget but yea a sata3 ssd woulda been dope
 
If you wanted red and black...you should have went with something cheaper like the Inferno Katana...the Maximus III is really an overclocking board for extreme cooling:

Although...at that price point you should have just went 1366, there are plenty of Red/Black boards out there.

At that price point, i would have suggested this memory, better CAS latencies:

Click to expand...

Right now on any intel chipset, USB3.0 would be through the pcie lanes in the first place, and you can get a USB3.0 pci express addon card for less than $30.

Also, that memory is black...when installed in a system is not very easy to see that the sides have blue writing, and it is 1600mhz.
 
Nothing that everyone hasnt said already
CPU - Core i7 930 or the 1090t(my preference SINCE am3 bOARDS WILL BE MORE FUTURE PROOF)
Motherboard Gigabyte UD5
Thermal COmpound - AC MX-2 or shin etsu
GPU ATI HD 5870
