Thanks for replying. I'm using the Corsair H50 Liquid Cooling for the CPU. I can get the CPU up to 4.1ghz stable, but the ram is only running at 1333. Do you think it would help to upgrade to Kingston-2000's?

I would just like to get some opinions on what's the best memory for oveclocking. I am looking for 12 gb of ram. I currently have 12 gb of Kingston-1600. But, it's getting too hot when I overclock and I can't get full speed out of it. Thanks in advance guys!

I currently have: Intel Q9450 8GB 1333 RAM 2x GeForce GTX 280 300GB VelociRaptor Drive 1TB Data Drive 1000w PSU Unit PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series Full Tower CoolerMaster Case (I don't remember what kind of MB ATM :P) For my new rig, I would want an Intel CPU...

I have a 24" Dell running at 1920x1280.

I was leaning towards buying an Asus Striker II Extreme, but I hear they have alot of problems. I need a motherboard which will handle 2x GeForce GTX280's. Thanks

Thanks for your input guys.... Could you try giving me specs for a good $4000 system? A break down of parts like I gave perhaps? BTW, I have a 24" Dell Monitor and my speakers are good too so leave those out.

My new computer will be used for gaming mainly and I'm willing to spend up to $6000 Canadian. Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9770 @ 3.20 Ghz Asus Striker II Extreme nForce 790i MB (2x) nVidia GeForce GTX280 4GB DD3-1600 RAM (Which kind is best?) 64GB (32GBx2) OCZ Core Series SSD (2x) 500GB WD HD...

I'm thinking... Intel CPU Nvidia SLI GPU 4 GB RAM (what kind?) 2 300 GB Veloci-Raptors Motherboard (?) Sound Blaster Fatal1ty Liquid Cooling (don't know) Case/Power Supply (?)

1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be performing. Gaming/Xvid to DVD Converting 2. What YOUR budget is. A price range is acceptable as long as it's not more than a 20% spread up to $6000 3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts from. Canada/USA 4...
