I give yours a 9. I like everything about it except the power supply. Ask POS-PC about Hyper power supplies... you'll want a new power supply REAL quick. He's had Hyper power supplies blow up his rig before.

Plenty of recommendations, but we need a budget to work with.

Yeah, that's cool. Figured I'd link you to single rail/dual rail psu's, they tend to be better on the pc with efficiency accounted for.

pos I rated you soo many times, but have you hit 3.4Ghz yet on that 4850e? If not, I'm surprised.
