wow... if your not doing anything serious with it... your wasting a huge chunk of money.. i'm 100% sure thats gonna cost you over 1k in us dollars

i would probably rather get a core 2 extreme as the quad core costs $2100 in new zealand , bout $1300 american(estimate)

funny u should mention that since thats the gpu im getting too! have the watercooling setup ready and everything for it . dont worry im gonna post pics, specs and everything once this superbeast is done. tons of modding going into it too

and nos, i need it because im a programming/graphics student and use 3dsmax8 etc. as well as tons of gaming. so it's going to get some use believe me! lots of multitasking needed

i think ill saty with my core duo for a while... fast enough
But i will buy the new series of nvidia G80....

wow i just realised something imagine the heat this beast would put out while overclocking it would be something like 250-300watts, youd need a good mobo for that
