Assuming the benchmarks here: http://it-review.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1483&Itemid=91 HD2900XT Crossfire is very similar in performance to 8800GTX SLI but at a much lower price. ($998 vs $778) Q6700 (exactly like QX6700 if you're not overclocking) $554 2x HD2900XT $778 4GB DDR2-800 $171 EVGA nForce 680i SLI (Socket 775-LGA and Quad-core) $160 Vista Ultimate OEM $190 Water cooling - for what? You're not overclocking anything that hard (Graphics cards can't be pushed that much anyway) so top be honest stock coolers will be fine. 1x 750GB 7200rpm HDD $200 1x 300GB 10000rpm HDD - Well I can't find one but say $150 750W PSU - hard to choose but say $160 DVD-RW / CD-RW Drive - $20 even? Case: Um... get a cheap one? $30 max? It gives no advantage Total: $2413. Even with water cooling, a retail OS, better case/optical drive/psu/hdds it's not going to exceed $3500. |
