Hi,
This will be my first computer build and i really need your guys help. i would like to only spend around +- $1200, I want to be able to play the more modern games such as fallout, crysis2 etc.. with all settings maxed out and with good to highest resolution on a 24" monitor. i dont need mouse, monitor, keybord or any of that. only the computer components.
I have built a computer that is a little above my proce point and wanted some feed back on the compadibality of the hardware and such... so here it is
Intel Core i7 930 Processor BX80601930 - 2.80GHz, 8MB L3 Cache, 4.8GT/s QPI, HyperThreading, Quad Core, Bloomfield, LGA 1366, Retail, Fan at TigerDirect.com
EVGA X58 SLI Motherboard - LGA 1366, Intel X58, SATA, SLI Ready, CrossFireX Ready, Triple Channel DDR3 support, RAID, Hyperthreading support at TigerDirect.com
Corsair XMS3 CMX6GX3M3A1600C9 Tri Channel 6GB PC12800 DDR3 Memory - 1600MHz, 6144MB (3 x 2048) at TigerDirect.com
XFX HD587XZNFC Radeon HD 5870 Video Card - 1GB GDDR5, PCI-Express 2.0, CrossFireX Ready, Dual DVI, Display Port, HDMI at TigerDirect.com
2X Western Digital WD5001AALS Caviar Black Hard Drive - 500GB, 7200 rpm, 32MB, SATA-3G at TigerDirect.com

Now is there any place where i splurged and got something that was overpriced or not needed? Please help me with stuff you would of bought or changed to make this rig cheaper but still capable of handiling all the new games.
-thanks-
