Custom High-end Computer: Suggestions?

[`PaWz]

I finally figured out all the hardware I need for a high-end computer, and I want to know if what I have is a good combo, what suggestions you would have to replace my current setup, or if there are any compatibility issues with any of the hardware.

All I am really asking is if these are 100% compatible. Any help would be appreciated

Looks compatible, are you planning on a single 8800GTX or two? The PSU is overkill even for two

Probably just one. I'm almost at the $3,000 limit already.

You could wait till april 22, the core 2 quad reduce prices to like 530 for the 6600

Really? wow.

I don't really need to, but I could use the extra $500

Is more like a 320$ save on the q6600, the q6700 will probably stay at the same price

Oh. Well I wanted the 6700 because it has an unlocked multiplier (I think) Would it matter if I downgraded to the 6600?

I wouldn't go for the 6600 if I were you, if you want a high end CPU. The 6600 is mid range.

I meant the QX6600

 

[Froboy7391_99]

Ya that's the mid range qaus core

 

[lovely?]

there is no such thing as 'mid range' in quad cores yet. they are the ultimate processing machines, and they are priced to fit the bill. they are by no means to be beaten by anything else out there, so i ask you, mid-range to what? the 'higher end' quad cores? jeez.

That's what I thought. The difference between the Q6600 and the Q6700 is just the clock speed. But somebody told me the 6700 has unlocked multipliers, if so that would be the better buy for overclocking.
