Similar to mine i just ordered, but I don't think the GTX is worth the extra ~150 dollars for a little bit more peformance.

Lol, except the PSU, case, and hard drive, that is the exact setup I was considering buying for my next comp.

Looks really nice! Some more memory that you may want to look into since you seem to actually have money:
G.SKILL 2X1GB DDR2-800 CL4-4-4-12 F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ
http://www.ncix.com/...facture=G.SKILL
Team Xtreem 2X1GB DDR2-800 CL 4-4-4-10 TXDD2048M800HC4DC
http://www.ncix.com/...u...m Group Inc.

Both overclock like b*tches.
Dominators are always nice, though! Just wish I could afford any of those. :D

Make sure you get that 680i from somplace that sells a lot. The older ones had problems but they've all been replaced by newer ones with different south bridges (I think that was the change). newegg should be fine, as should any of the bigger sites.

+1 on the build! Enjoy it!

Here's some good tech info about the gts vs the gtx, you may or may not find it useful: http://forums.extrem...ad.php?t=243453

Seems like you're paying another $180 over the GTS for the GTX.

[sch3nk2k4]

decent setup :)
good luck buying and building, let us know

I finally got the computer up and running. I had some trouble because the damn dvd drive jammed into the case, lol. Anywho, the computer is awesome. The 8800 gtx came with the new dark messiah game which is pretty decent. Soon, I'll put some pics up, but the inside of my case is still jumbled up.

[Billy Pumper]

cool, i want to see
