Videocard 7950gx2 $320 (OUCH!)
Case Tj-09 $244 (Ouch x2)
Lights, fans, etc. $100

Total = $1211.98

wow. it's amazing how fast the cost blew up.. but if you subtract the videocard and case.. I only spent about 558 on my system!

Oh. And I finally reached 9640 on 3d mark 06!!
will post screenies when I get a chance tomorrow.
I'm going to overclock a bit more (vid card and such.), put my stuff in my new tj case, and see if I can get to 10k ^^

But seriously.. i knew i spent alot on my rig.. but wow... i just spent 500+ on a videocard and a case... AHH

Post your most expensive rig.
 
just ordered the cpu today, but still have 2 or 3 more parts to pick up before I can Get the system running. wont go into peripherals, monitor, extra hd's and stuff.
Base setup:
XFX 8800 Ultra - 803
Intel C2D Q6600 G0 (im hoping) - 285 (1 day 30$ instant rebate FTW XD)
Asus P5K Deluxe - 240 (1 day 25$ rebait too whooo)
G.Skill HZ 2Gb - 164
Corsair 620 HX - 135
Lian-LI A70B - 230
Seagate 7200.11 1Tb - 380

total: 2237 +tax

after monitors, keyboard, speakers, cooling and crap its enough to make me dizzy. be nealy a year before i piece together 5k >.> need to make some friends in the US to save a few hundred lol. even though canadian dollar is worth more our prices still way higher, and most US stores wont ship up here. oh well be glad when its all said and done, be time to start upgrading again by then though >.> be nice to find a good deal on some 24" lcd's too. big wallet burner.
 
XD im hopin for a good number just for fun. pretty excited. the waitin is murder though. I've had the video card sittin in the box for over a month now lol it's torture. I'd like to win a small lotto so i can get the qx6850 lol. never happen though ; ;
 
mine, around $700 n i havent had my computer up n running for almost a year now!!!!! I need around $2000 to fix n rebuild my computer, but final budget goal to spend is not final because im still waiting for the Phenom, 790X, n HD 3000 series to come out.

i know sad..........long story short, i couldnt get hired anywhere. Out of 27 applications i sent since August 06 *month i got laid off from Arby's, first job* , i got 4 job interviews (luckily my 4th interview was with Cold Stone, which im still working at but planning on suing later, long story as well).
 
Current setup costed about $650. I've upgraded parts of the computer over time though. The last cpu I had in was a amd64 3000 which costed $50 more than my current amdx2 3800. So theres more money in it but I'm not using those parts now.
