**Kanati** · 12-18-10, 05:38 PM

Just ordered 1100 dollars worth of newegginess! Should be here tuesday.

What'd I get?

Another EVGA 460 GTX superclocked... So I can SLI those suckers.

ASUS Rampage III Extreme Motherboard
Intel I7 950 (3.06Ghz quad core)
Corsair Vengeance 12GB (3x4gb) kit

Time to dump this core2quad finally.

The EVGA 460s are really nice.... I only have one at the moment in my new build and it is making me very happy.

And the i7 950 may be stock clocked at 3.06Ghz, but it can easily push 4.0 with a good aftermarket fan. It is an absolute beast.

That's why I went with that one. I was seeing people overclocking to 4.5 with that chip. Looks like it's the new 920. That was a beast at the time too.

Corsair memory is kinda overpriced, though.

It might be... but I trust it. And had the few dollars extra to go with it.

I like OCZ memory. My last 3 builds have had OCZ Reaper and they have been great. They overclock well, run cool, and haven't died on my yet. The resale value on them was pretty good on eBay.

Same my last two machines had OCZ platinum Ram and my new rig has Reaper. I put reaper in my brothers computer when I built it last year too. Never had a problem with OCZ.
