Shadowex3 Posted December 2, 2009 Content Count: 2959 Joined: 02/27/08 Status: Offline Share Posted December 2, 2009 $1200 is a top of the line world class gaming rig with everything up to and including a soundcard, you've got roughly twice the amount of money you need. Just get your parts from newegg, your heatsink and fans from SVC (watch the delta's, they're called "screamers" for a reason), and when everyone and their mother here tells you to stick with Corsair or PC Power and Cooling for your powersupply just fkin do it. Those two are EASILY the highest performing power supplies out there and a psu is the only part of your computer that can damage the others if it goes bad. As for the rest... Antec 900, asus motherboard in the range of $130-$150, Corsair Dominator or OCZ Reaper DDR3 (NOT the most expensive ones, it wont make a difference, honest), either an ATI or Nvidia graphics card whichever's performing best at the moment, this x-fi, whatever intel core i7 is on top but still in your price range, and one of these heatsinks preferrably either the Noctua or Thermalright models since they outperform everything else by MILES. 1 Link to comment

You should be able to get them yourself off of newegg.ca, Personally I've given up on taking the time to post completed rigs here because people tend to look at it and then completely ignore us on the most important things.
