Hi all,

Please take a look at my new build. If there are any mistakes or better options please let me know. I plan to upgrade again around march or april after intel release its new line of processors.

http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/Public...Number=10939608

The box will be primarily for gaming and a little video editing

I hope to OC the 6600 to 3.4Ghz

Down the line I would like to drop a second 4850 in it. I read the Mobo I picked supports crossfire, but I do not see it mentioned under the specs on new egg.

Thanks in advance

you dont have a hard drive or dvd drive listed so i am assuming that you have those already. also the ram is expensive. this is almost exactly the same except for looser timings.

i would get this cooler instead

you might want to get a 120mm case fan for the front of your case. other than that it looks like a good build.
