Cooler Master RC-942-KKN1 HAF X ATX Full Tower Computer Case
Intel Core i7-3930K 3.2 1 LGA 2011 Processor
ASUS Rampage IV Extreme X79 Motherboard
Sapphire 21197-00-40G Radeon HD 7970 Video Card
Those are the components I have chosen so far. My goal is to build a machine that I can apply a massive upgrade to when the time comes. I'll keep my laptop for browsing the web, this baby is gonna be for 3d design and minor gaming for now. If I don't like what I see with the new consoles I should be able to adapt with these core parts.
I need to look at ram. I'm thinking 32gb to start. A blue ray drive and a dvd burner for optics. One 500gb hard drive should be enough for now.
The one thing I am stuck on right now is what kind of power supply I should go with. I haven't looked at those yet.
If I can I want to avoid breaking $3500 on this beast. I'm around $1850 before taxes and shipping at the moment.
Any thoughts?
