i want a case that is strong and sturdy, no gay clear sidepanels o neons;)

thanks
 
meh just basically this


Conreo X6800

Conroe Motherboard

2 GIGS of DDR2 ram

2 raptors In RAID0

2 X1900XTX in CrossFire

XFI Sound Card

PC power cooling 850 SI

2 RW drives

and some server case



Now il let someone else get the specifics but start from there.
 
those x1900xtx can blow me. get two nvidia 7950's and buy some x1900xtx's just so u can **** on them.
 
Lord AnthraX has everything you need there. When are you gion to build this powerhouse? If its not for a month or two might i recommend:

CPU: Conroe X6800
mobo: RD600 conroe mobo
RAM: 2GB DDR2 1000
Graphics: 2 * X1950XTXs in CF (not like 7950GTs, they're basicly X1900XTXs with GDDR4 memory at 3.2GHz, should be out in a month or two)
HD: 2 Raptors in RAID + 1 250GB+ HD
Sound card: XFI
PSU: PC Power and Cooling 850 SI or OCZ GameXstream 700W
RW: 2 RW Drives
Case: ur choice
Cooling: Tuniq Tower, Scythe Cool Miner, TT BIg Typhoon + 2 * Zalman VF900s or Watercooling
Then some huge *** moniter.

think thats about it.
 
Ok heres my estimate:
CPU: $999
Mobo: $150-200
RAM: $450+ for 1000, $250 for 800
Graphics: Last article on X1950XTX said it'd be around 350 euro so i'm sayin anywhere between $450-$550 times by two. When these come out, X1900XTXs will drop in price so you could go two of those if the price is overwhelming.
HD: 2*$250 (150GB Raptor) + $75 (250GB HD)
Sound: $170 (idk wuts a good sound card so u might have to check that)
PSU: $160 (OCZ Gamexstream 700w) $450 for PC Power and Cooling. Here i'd go for the OCZ, its got more power on the 12V rail (4 * 17A compared to 3 * 17A).
RW: 2*$40 (or 2*$60 for lightscribe drives if you wanted them, no use really, i haev one and used it once with the cd that came with it)
Case: anywhere between $50-$250?
Cooling: Tuniq Tower (Really hard to find, dont kno price), Scythe Miner: $45, TT Big Typhoon: $45 Watercooling: go to xtremesystems and look around. FrozenCPU.com has a big selection but a little pricey. This is the kit i was lookin at: http://www.frozencpu.com/ex-wat-76.html
Total: anywhere from $3000-$4500 (estimate, i didnt add them, alot of stuff to add there)
