Anyway I'd like to thank Phenom for this thread. It reminded me to buy a Powerball ticket.

It's 500 million dollars (before taxes,) right now. :eek:

my dream pc looks a little like this i think:

Intel i5-3570K/i7-3770K with Corsair H100i
Asus Maximus V Gene
32gb atleast 2400mhz
GTX680 4GB or GTX 690...

Intel 335 256gb SSD (One or Two)
WDC Red 2TB (4 of them)
Blu-ray Optical drive x:

SeaSonic SS-860XP
Cooler-Master HAF XB case

and last but not least one Asus Xonar Essence One ^^;

For me it would be pretty much what I have right now, maybe change the motherboard to a dual socket Z9PE-D8 WS from Asus, maybe get two high clocked 8-core 16-thread Intel Xeons, maybe get a couple of 240GB SSDs (preferably Intel), and maybe a new case that can take EEB.

A second 7950 for crossfire,two 120gb/240gb SSD's in raid 0 and a 1600p led IPS monitor or a 1080p 120hz monitor.
its not the BEST system but i dont need more then that.

Edit:Oh and maybe an Asus xonar essence STX+sennhieser pc360.

This is hard to answer though because with unlimited funds I'd probably be swapping/upgrading a part or two like every month. And would have multiple "machines".

Eh, I'm happy with what I have now.

Nice topic, Phenom! Thanks. Always good to dream. After all, we don't pay taxes for dreaming (yet ¬¬).

Build:

Cooler Master CM Storm Stryker Full Tower Case (mod)
Rampage IV Extreme
i7 3930K @ 5GHz
4-way GTX680 SLI
Corsair AX1200i
Patriot Viper 3 Red 2133MHz 4x8GB DDR3 RAM
2x OCZ Vertex 4 256GB SSD's
WD Caviar Black 1TB Hard Drive
Bitfenix Recon Fan Controller
CPU and GPU waterblocked (too lazy to name all the parts. Probably would use 2x 360 radiators with the EK-FC680 blocks and the EK-Supreme HF. Red coolant, clear tubing, nice compression fittings and dual-bay reservoir. Enermax TB Vegas Duo 120mm fans for the radiators).

Always good to dream.
