MAIN QUESTION:


Will all of these parts work well with each other?


BUDGET: There really isn't one... As listed below I found out about the 790i Motherboard and changed my plans from the 780i... I can make changes and go up in price if needed.

I have been reading about how if I were to put an Athlon CPU in an Intel Motherboard the Athon's power would be cut in half... and other things I had to change...

Also the NVIDIA 780i SLI motherboard is NOT!!!!!!! DDR3 COMPATIBLE!!! --
I guess I will have to wait untill March 11, 2008 for the NVIDIA 790i Motherboard to come out. ( I WILL be putting TWO NVIDIA GTX OC SLI graphcis cards in this rig )

Welcome To Tech Forums!!!

really you would be better off with some crucial ballistix ram.

also you don't need the killer network card. it is mostly a scam. for a psu you could go with a corsair 620hx or a 750tx. also i'm sure Ste will come in and post to look in his sig about psu guides.

If you're gonna wait until the 790i boards come out, then get either a q6600 or a 45nm quad when they come out.

why gtx sli? you could probably spend about the same amount of money and get a 9800 gx2 and it would be far better in terms of performance.

my contact info is in my profile. just drop me a pm if you can't find something or want to contact me :D
 
DDR3 is not worth it, your way better off spending the money on a q6600 instead of that e6750

don't get the KNIC
and just wait and get a 9800gtx 2
and since you won't be needing SLI unless your playing on uber high resolution you could probably get a high quality x38
Newegg.com - ABIT IX38 Quad GT LGA 775 Intel X38 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

also that is a very very high end sound card, and unless you have really expensive speakers your not going to see the difference between that and an x-fi prelude
