^^ well nice config for gaming. i mean excellent one. just he needs a 1Tb HDD. so i think a WDC Black + Green combo will work fine. will cost close to 5k. so OP need to pump in some extra cash. also he can go for 785G based mobo to reduce pricing by ~1-2k. other than that no problem. nice one :razz:

Nice config there, but do you still get 955BEs? I thought they would stop that after 965BE ...
