Well im gonna stick with the Case bundle and get the X2 Sledgehammer CPU..with that the DFI SLI DR Lan Party MOBO but not EXACTLY sure on the RAM..Iv heard Crucial Ballistics, OCZ, Crucial XMS 2..
 
OCZ for RAM

go for a Seagate 7200RPM drive. you won't notice that much difference on the Raptor, except for loading times.
you can use the money saved on something else.
 
OK, iv made a list of all the parts im going to buy EXCLUDING the Case with the Watercooling and all the other WC blocks, raditors etc. and stuff i will need not to mention the sleeving too etc. Please give me some input

! Both the same cards, is $20 worth it for the BFG Tech?

All together, with the 2 x eVga's is $2,423.15 including shipping, says NOT including tax and NOT including some mail in rebates. I still have yet to get my Monitor, WC Case, and all the other accesories (sleeving, WC blocks etc..)
 
OK Iv made some changes (See post above)..I got the Deluxe MOBO instead of the Premium i didnt see much of a difference between the two.
