Just ordered my new PC

[Stalker]

With Diablo 3 releasing on May 15th, I'm done waiting and bought everything. I have a good relationship with our Tiger Direct rep, so he got me all of the parts at his cost. Saved me about $1000.

Motherboard: ASUS P8Z68-V Pro/Gen3
Processor: Iten Core i7-2600K
RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengeance PC12800 DDR3 1600 MHZ
Graphics Card: ASUS Radeon HD 7870 Direct CU II
Case: Thermaltake Element G mid
Power: Thermaltake 750 Watt
Optical Drive: Sony BD Burner
Drives: Corsair Force Series 3 Solid State 120GB (x2), 2TB Seagate 7200 RPM SATA
Monitors: Asus VS247H 24in LED (x2)
Keyboard/Mouse: Logitech G510 Gaming Keyboard, Logitech G500 Gaming Mouse
Headset: Logitech 981-000381 Wireless Bluetooth
Monitor Stand: Planar AS2 Dual Monitor Stand

Total price was just under $2,000 including shipping and tax. Just might have to get BF3 for PC so I can play it on there too with you clowns.

I need a new desktop but nothing close to that. I don't play games but do deal with HD video from track days.

Sounds great, look forward to seeing pictures, video, and live feed for when it arrives at your home.

 

[Stalker]

I'll be in Denver when it arrives. Steph will just set it in the foyer and let me deal with it when I get back from my conference.

Looks like a damn nice build to me. The only thing I wouldve done differently is the headset. Logitech makes very good devices, but audio equipment isnt one of em. Id be looking into something Sennheiser. Far more quality by an audio company for not much more money. It may not be bluetooth, but as far as headsets are concerned, theyre top notch.

 

[Golden]

Sennheiser FTW. My HD280s are killer, especially considering that they were $79 shipped.

 

[Stalker]

I'll look into it. 99% of the time I'll be playing through my 5.1 surround sound.

$2K - good grief - you could have bought a Mac Air and an iPhone for that kind of money.

Yeah then you'd have $2,000 worth of SHIT. Nice build. Should be adequate for surfing ESPN.COM lookin at Denards stats and touching yourself.

Should have went with the GTX 680...I have one, it's a beast.

I seriously considered it, but it was about 150 more with his pricing. I researched online and the 7870 is being raved about for being one of the best bangs for your buck. It's my first endeavor into Radeon. Also my first endeavor into Intel as opposed to AMD.
