Ok so i've been biding my time and saving my money and its about time to start planning out for a new (NOT DELL) rig. Currently these are the parts i have set out:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 Processor LGA775 Conroe 1.86GHZ $243.00
Different Mobo? (was DFI LANParty UT ICFX3200-T2R/G RD600 XPRESS3200 Motherboard $299.98 )
OR Gigabyte GA-965P-DQ6 $272.46
OR ASUS P5W DH Deluxe $277.59
OCZ Platinum XTC REV.2 PC2-6400 2GB 2X1GB DDR2-800 CL4-4-4-15 $266.22
320GB SATA2 3GB/S 7200RPM 16MB Cache Hard Drive Seagate Barracuda $129.40
Insert Mid-high ranged directx 10 video card here $347.72
Coolermaster CM Stacker 830 E-ATX Brushed Aluminum Case $267.90
OCZ GameXStream 700W SLI Ready ATX Power Supply 120MM Fan Black $166.88
Zalman 9500 $62.57
Cooler Master Neon Blue LED 120MM Case Fan 22DBA 1220RPM (x5) $38.25
Total $1,825.94
Now keep in mind these are all canadian prices. I'm also toying with the idea of going with watercooling instead of air and maybe changing the case to compensate as i dont want to spend much more money than $1800. I definately plan on overclocking this rig so keep that in mind (also plan on getting a 2nd video card at one point down the road as well, the motherboard may change based on if i go nvidia or ati but i defaulted to ati). So thoughts and suggestions are welcome!
