Well guys I was able to resist my temptations of getting a q9550 and have been waiting for this day. The corei7 is out. I already have a case and psu (antec 1200 and antec 1000watt psu). Can you guys help in putting together a corei7 rig for me about 1000-1300$, the cheaper the better. I know people here on computerforum piece together rigs for people all the time and im sure it gets a little annoying but im really asking for your help here. I really value your guys' opinion and all input and suggestions would be very helpufull. Thanks

Annoying? I actually find it quite relaxing - to be honest, it's why I'm here.
What kind of computer are you after? For that kind of price, it looks like a medium specification gaming rig. If not, then what do you want to use it for?
If we get more information, we can put together a nice build for you.

P6T Deluxe $320 (MSI & Gigabyte are available now)
i7 920 (2.66GHz) $320 or 2.93GHz $526
RAM 4GB DDR3 1333MHz $160 or 1600Mhz $??
640GB HD's $85
(2) 4850 <$220ea
you'd have to verify dual GPU with the mobo
drives $30ea
Mouse / Keyboard personal preference. Myself = G11 $60 & MX518 $40
Sound cards, personal preference. I use cheap after-market since I don't have speakers worth investing in.
Misc cables - SATA, etc
That's my layout for my system (minus dual GPU)
FYI: everything is available via newegg now.
