Yeah, just that XFX is handled by Rashi here, we DO NOT like rashi, actually we pretty much hate them, so that's a start. Anyway xfx makes terrific psus, well they do not make any but uses oem parts from other companies(seasonic), corsair also uses the same oem, so at the end of the day most competing psus from xfx and corsair are same units with different color and fan grill, take your pick, corsair warranty is very much hassle free.

You all are correct.
1. I read many reviews & post that 6950 Twin Frozr III Power/OC Will Not Unlock To 6970. Is It True. So Should I Overclock It To Gain Same Performance.
2. @jsjs i'm not buying razer hydra to invest in something better.
3. For Monitor Should I Go With These One "Samsung PX2370" @ 14K. Is This One Has Integrated Speakers. Best monitors - CNET Reviews
4. For Case Are This Case Available & if what price:
1. Corsair Carbide Series 500R 2. NZXT Source 210 Elite 3. SilverStone Raven RV02
5. Will there be a major speed difference between a 200 mb read/write and 500 mb read/write

if you are talking about these ones:

regarding unlocking see what MSI has to say
MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III Power Edition Unlocking - Unlocking Guide

that monitor is a charm, but aren't you buying separate speakers?

regarding cases....choose youself
In Pictures: Six Low-Noise Performance-Oriented Cases - Antec’s Latest Sonata

difference b/w 200 mb read/write and 500 mb read/write?
don't know honestly

That All Guides are not working. Personally Tested on my friend's rig.
I'm Talking About Power/OC Edition Not Power Edition.

It Has Integrated Speakers Or Not. Because Mostly For Gaming, Entertainment I Will Use A High - End Gaming Headset So Doesn't Require a Speaker solution

Features|P8Z68-V Pro|Maximus IV GENE-Z|P8Z68-V
BT go|Yes|No|Yes
Marvel Port|Yes|No|No
X-Fi|No|Yes|No

So for me it's better to get G-Z over V. But V PRO rocks. But depends on users need what should he get.

Edit: resolved some typo :p

BT GO rocks, I'm using it and 3rd party dongles don't even remotely come close.

I Agree With All of your points except 4 gb vs 8gb

read this article and in some test 8gb is slower than 4gb.

8gb is not worth the money for 1-2 secs speed.

Review - Is More Memory Better? | bit-tech.net
Click to expand...

Couple of reasons as to why the findings in the article might not necessarily matter -
1. test system used has vista 64bit sp1. maybe windows7 uses the memory better?
2. the article is dated 07/2008. Apps have gotten a lot more memory intensive in the meantime. most app performance benchmarks are simply not relevant any longer

More Than 4 GB Ram Only Gives You Multi Tasking Potentional Not Speed.
Windows 7 64 Bit Test Also Shows There Is No Need 4 GB Ram

Do You Really Need More Than 4GB of RAM?

Thats why we go for it, anyway do you know a part of the graphics card memory is mapped in the RAM? Mines around 2.5GB, its not blocked, but during extensive gaming keeping this amount of ram free prevents texture pop ups and increases fps a bit, also decrees loading times.
