I don't know that that video card exists, and I think you may mean Corsair instead of Crucial for that PSU. Other then that it looks like a top of the line rig. What you plan on doing with all that power?

Compared to the rest of the hardware that GPU is pretty weak. Not much gaming I assume?


Also that PSU is way overkill. Theres a 650w version of that PSU, or the Antec Truepower New units (550 or 650w here), or the Corsair VX550 would probably be better fits

are you sure you even need a sound card? with the digital out on the motherboard, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of point

if he plans on using the analogue sound output there is definitely a point in a soundcard, so it may be worth considering. Else i agree with the above statements about the overkill PSU But it all seems to fit together nicely so its no biggie.

Whoops....can't type apparently....yea ,that is a Corsair power supply and the video card is supposed to say Radeon HD 5870

if i was going to spend that much on a system, i would at least get a 1920x1200 monitor

but that's me

Haven't seen the benchmarks, but I can't believe the 870 is worth [nearly] twice the price of the 860. Save your money for a rainy day, or upgrade some other part.
