This is the computer I want to put together but I want to save the most money possible. Should I scrap the soundcard since the MB has audigy chip built in? Whats the performance difference if I went with Dual 7900GT instead of GTX? Any thoughts on the Amd x2 chips? I'm a 3rd year computer engineering student and want to put this computer together over the summer, any input would be greatly appreciated! If you foresee any conflicts let me know thanks.
