Good luck trying to find the E8400 in stock. Some places do have it in stock but they are quite a bit higher.

Everything else looks good to me though, except maybe the PSU. I wouldn't think you would need that much but I could be wrong.
 
True guys... PSU isn't permanent i just had to pull sometin up fast... but meh.

I would go higher on the E8400 as well.

Still, anyone know about the cross fire?

-Thanks... please post suggestion.. etc

I was told that new drivers would be coming out soon that supported the CrossFire on the graphics card. Someone care to link me to it on newegg if it's out yet?



If your not too much much in a hurry I have seen Newegg put the coolermaster 830/RPP 1000 power supply combo on sale for 279.99. Just keep an eye out for it because it comes and goes pretty quick
 
dang that is a lot of money, i got my pc done for 450 and it run crysis just fine. lol

Whats in it?

Most of my cost is from my two momma video cards

When the new drivers come out in march I will be able to run crysis maxed flawless. No game can stop these beasts from working. Except for maybe power :O
