First off I want to say thank you all sooo much for replying so fast and with great advice. Thank you Pinsher for coming up with that rig.
As far as price goes, I told them that $3,000 is a lot for a computer but they only look at Dell and stuff like that which is wayyyyyy over priced! If I could get away with spending $2,500 that would be cool. The main point is I saved them 4.5 years of college tuition and fees by playing football so this is a "thank you" gift I think lol.
Question to Pinsher: You didn't give the link for the 640GB HDD... Also, why are Lian-Li cases so amazing? Finally, how hard would it actually be to build this computer? I have never done anything like this before but I will have my laptop there to ask a crap ton of questions If I run into any trouble. I plan on building this computer some time after graduation and most likely in June so will the parts still be up to date? I will stay up to date for sure on the forums and when I actually do build it I will take pictures. Thanks again to everyone helping and anymore advice is welcome.
