1090T is a six-core processor...hmmm, as far as i know, six cores arent so good in gaming cause of these two cores more. You should pick a 965 QC and a GTX460 OC/GTX470.

Radeon 6970 is a fail ripoff from Radeon 5870. I'd choose nvidia GTX570 for better performance.

SeaSonic Power is a fail. I'd pick Corsair 750 for that machine.

MSI mo-fo-bos are win.

G.Skill does shitty ram. I had four gigs of it and they fucked themselves up after 4 days. Pick Corsair Dominator.

NZXT does high quality ATX'es, but it is better to pick CoolerMaster Elite 334 cause of its price.

And by the way, Maybe you choosed AMD because Intel is a fucking monopolist? If yes then you are RIGHT.

G.Skill does s**tty ram. I had four gigs of it and they f**ked themselves up after 4 days. Pick Corsair Dominator.

And by the way, Maybe you choosed AMD because Intel is a f**king monopolist? If yes then you are RIGHT.

implying it's only for gaming

You're a fail, Seasonic is one of the OEMs for Corsairs PSU's. They make one of the best PSUs. Fail so f**king much.

Msi is sometimes okay, there are better brands.

That depends on your experience but G.skill is a great brand.

lol "high quality" like what model? Lian Li, Silverstone, CM, have better cases.

Originally I was getting an Asus board.

That board was out of stock when I ordered it, and like 20 FUCKING MINUTES AFTER I PLACED MY ORDER THE SHIT WAS LIKE AHAHAHAH BACK IN STOCK.

So I might... MIGHT. buy the asus and just return the Msi.

Seasonic is one of the OEMs for Corsairs PSU's. They make one of the best PSUs.

Seasonic is what I use for my PSUs. I built my main linux desktop and my windows gaming rig in early/mid 2006 (respectively), both with the same seasonic psu. That was 5 years ago and they're still going strong. Same applies to the ASUS motherboard I used and AMD processor:

The NZXT Phantom is ok, but if you're spending so much damn money you should've gotten a better case.

[Blacksheepboy]
