Cut on the PSU and get a better gfx card. Also, a SLI mobo is sort of an overkill, a simple Gigabyte DS-3 will also overclock VERY well.

The good old P965 makes more sense at present.

Oh, and 600W is still an overkill. 500W from a quality brand (like SeaSonic, Enermax, Tagan, Thermaltake, etc.) are sufficient even for a 8800GTX.

Seriously you work for dabs?

I've been like a loyal fan forever. Farking Post Office just messed up and didn't send me my order through from you guys. (I blame them for not delivering it not you guys) and now they want me to bitch at you guys about it. I just wanted a memory stick.

What you've got seems pretty good, but how about swapping the HDD for one of the newer Samsung ones?
Also up the motherboard.
I'll go the the quicklinx and post them.
