nice, i would suggest one change though, well a few, its really nice going modular on the psu, i currently own a BFG 1200 EX. its really good, the dual 4870X2's have many driver issues, i suggest two single cards, GTX 285's. And the processor, Core i7 920 can be overclocked to 4.0ghz so would i really be worth it to spend 1000 bucks on the extreme? Cases- Go for one with good cooling and FULL TOWER ATX, i got a Antec 1200 it keeps the components really cool. |

This is a very nice build. I'd get the 720 because it seems pretty darn awesome for overclocking. AM3 choice brings you nice upgradeability since that's the socket they'll be using in the next generation of processors. |
