I've decided to buy, instead of build for a number a reasons. I've settled in on Micro Velocity as the company to buy from. That said, I'd appreciate any input on what I've selected given my computing needs.
I'm only concerned with gaming for this rig I play Vanguard, Company of Heroes and will be playing Crysis the second it's released. That gives you an idea of the genres I like.
I don't need the absolute lastest and greatest. I'm looking for the best price point for performance. It's also my understanding that the lastest/greatest processors are not providing much addtional performance above a solid dual-core released a few months ago.
I plan to get a MB that supports SLI and get a second GPU later:
850 Watt Velocity Micro® Power Supply - Nvidia® SLI Certified
EVGA nForce 680i SLI, Socket 775, PCI-E, DDR2
Intel® Core 2 Extreme processor X6800, dual 2.93GHz cores, 4MB L2 Cache
4096MB Corsair DDR2 PC5300 DDR667 (4x1024)
768MB EVGA GeForce 8800GTX DDR3 PCI-E w/HDCP
250GB Western Digital WD2500KS 7200rpm SATA/300, 16MB Cache
Genuine Microsoft® Windows® Vista Home Premium 32-bit
Thanks in advance!
