one thing comes to mind...


"build it and they will come" doh.. did I say that.

Seriously, that's a nice system, maybe someday, just maybe...

Here's other speakers.
uk.europe.creative.com...
www.tomshardware.com...
www.nordichardware.com...

And you need 7.1 soundcard.
I would say Audigy 2 ZS would be good choise because of support for newest versions of EAX.


Also if you don't need so much heating in your house I would change nVidia to Ati X800 XT.

Now are you really building this beast, or is this just wishful thinking? If you're actually building it, all I can say is damn. That's awesome.

You need an operating system with that...I didnt see one listed...WinXP Pro you can get OEM for about 150$...also...instead of the GeForce 6800 get the X800...its been proven much better in tests by TomsHardware and Andatech (sp)...you should also go to Microsoft and download the 64Bit version of XP amd Test it...its Freeeeee....
