"I can afford the best in computer parts. Pisses you off doesn't?"

Well I have decent pc parts, but I game 17 hours a day, lets see how u hold up with ur pretty pc against that 🙂
 
What is this Alienware and Dell Crap. LOL get off the forum with that crap. Building your PC is the Only way to FLY. You might as well buy a Gateway or E-Machine LOL.
 
"I can afford the best in computer parts. Pisses you off doesn't?"

Not really unless you are so rich and crazy and then manage to buy off every single part from the market.
Then I won't be able to build a PC!!
That way I would be really annoyed!
 
Ok, here are my opinions:

MSI K8N NEO4 SLI/PREMUIM MB

I like it

COOLERMASTER CMSTACKER CASE
I like the Lian Li V1000 personally

2- BFG 7800 GTX OC VIDEO CARDS
Probably overkill with a 19" Monitor. I would get a bigger monitor, Dell 2405

2 STICKS OCZ EL 512MEG DUAL CHANNEL 2-3-2-5
Minus well get 2gb

2-WESTERN DIGITAL RAPTORS HD SATA
Just get regular HD's, forget the raptors too noisy, and tiny performance increase is not worth it

1-WESTERN DIGITAL IDE 40 GIG
See above, get a regular hard drive.

ENERMAX 600 WATT NOISETAKER POWER SUPPLY(sli ready)
Fine

1-PLEXTER DUAL LAYER DVD WRITER
Get the PX-716, the 740 is a rebadged BenQ 1640. Or just get the 1640 for less

1-SONY DVD READER
That's fine, I like lite-on readers personally

1-SONY FLOPPY DRIVE
fine

MICROSOFT WIRELESS KEYBOARD AND MOUSE
Get a wired keyboard with illuminated keys like the Saitek Eclipse. Get a G5 or G7 Mouse

SOUND BLASTER AUDIGY 2 SOUND CARD
Get a Xi-Fi Sound Blaster

LOGITECH 5.1 SPEAKER SYSTEM
I like the Klipsch 5.1 Ultras

LEADTEC TV TUNER CARD
I like Hauppauge 150 MCE

CANOPUS PCI CARD TO CONVERT ANALOG VIDEO CAMERA TO DVD
Fine

AMD FX-55 CPU
Get an X2, with the new Nvidia Detonators supporting 2 cores, it's faster in everything, including gaming. X2 4800.

VIEWSONIC 19 INCH P95F+
Most important part of the rig, imo. What you see everyday, what you get feedback from....get the best you can afford, I like the Dell 2405, but if you're loaded get a 30" Apple Cinema.


 
Couldn't say it's the fastest or the best performing for your particular system but the OCZ EL Platinum has to surely be the nicest looking memory I have ever seen and it runs stable even when overclocked. This makes it tops on my list. Go for 2 Gigs.

Audigy 2 ZS Gamer Edition is a regular Audigy 2 ZS bundle with games.

and of course there is no way an Audigy 2 ZS is better than X-Fi.
