I'm putting a disclaimer here. Unless you have had experience building your own computer, you will most likely be baffled at my list of parts and agenda.

So this started 3 years ago, when I decided, to prepare myself for the now-current onslaught of next gen games, to save up for the best computer parts money can buy, that will work together and provide the ultimate gaming experience. So, 3 years later, I've obviously been modifying my list as new stuff rolled out.

I decided to post here, because mainly, computers are a bitch, and if there's any tech-savvy people besides me here, may help pick out what I missed. Or not!

I don't think this thing will be upgradeable for a good long time, but I could be wrong. And I could be missing something crucial. However, I've come prepared with links. Hoping to get some opinions before I buy, you guys are my last filtration stop!

This is what I am getting. (https://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/WishList/PublicWishDetail.asp?WishListN umber=4226369) Although, there is one slight discrepancy. I am purchasing the EVGA parts (Motherboard, two video cards) from EVGA directly. Cheaper, and good warranty. I trust 'em.

Check it out, if anyone's interested. I'm looking to purchase this sometime soon (In the next week maybe) if all goes well. and yes, it's expensive, but in my defense, I have to say, this is much cheaper (And better!) than a stupid $5k computer most brand names charge. :P
