Ok, that's not too bad a system, and if you don't know where to get the cheapest parts from, then that cost is about right.

I'm building a near identical system to that today, but will have SSD and the ATI 6950 with 16gb of ram.

Should be a nice system. enjoy it.

1500 all up including postage. Pretty happy with that. It's going to take me ages to get all the crap off my old hard drives and reinstall everything i need. That will be my Sunday gone...

Just noticed meanwhile you only have a score of 5.9.
What item is letting the score down?

Umm, you do realise currently on the market there is little use for a sli or crossfire setup for the avg gamer.
It's simply a way to piss in the wind and say your epeen is longer.

And for 1500 DELIVERED, the price is about right if buying the parts from the avg shop.

I can quote a similar cost system at just under 1200 with parts some near cost.

he didn't get ripped as I would tell him, I've known about this system for a while and cautioned him.
He got a good system for the price.
