520HX Great reviews here .. looks solid and its modular MEGA PLUS

Video Card
8800gt or something similar.. maybe a 7950gt or an ati 1950gt? Vid card to me is last / least important... they come out with new ones ever day practically.. so ...

Opinions/comments/changes/flames about not going intel? all welcome here!
 
looks good.. get the 8800gt istead of those other 2 u mentioned... The Ballistix Tracer is the same thing as the Ballistix except with the LED's which cause the price jack-up.. if ur ok with that.. go ahead with them.. just an FYI

the Blue NQ's won't overclock as well as the Ballistix because they don't have D9 Micron chips..
 
my bad guys... those are the HK's... the NQ's are the reds.. its so CONFUSING...

and yes he does..
 
those are your reasons
They're the reasons that I thought were most likely to be held by the OP.

I asked the OP.
Which doesn't necessarily mean other people can't answer it.

Obviously money isn't a huge part of it as the parts he chosearen't budget components.
Maybe the reason he's going cheap on the CPU is because he's getting other parts which are expensive.
