So for about $2200, I think i'm getting a pretty monstrous box here. (I forgot to mention, I already own a LG 23" LCD monitor)
I've never water cooled and I'm still kinda iffy on it and which one to get, so far i like the Corsair products but i'm still looking into it.
I will be overclocking my cpu and further overclocking my gfx card,
I'll be running Win7 64-bit (and may possibly dual boot xp 64bit),
I'm ready to hit the nuke button on my bank account for this one,
What do you guys think??
And any suggestions on water cooling hardware?
Thanks for your time!
