This computer is already built. I've had it for about a week, and it wasn't a build from scratch, rather an accumulation over time.

I'd like your opinions about my rig. You could rate it out of /10 and justify your opinion if you wanted to.

My setup:

eVGA 680i SLI A1 Revision
Q6600 @ 3.6Ghz 1.48v
ThermalRight Ultra Extreme Heatsink / Panaflo 114 CFM fan
2 x 1GB Patriot Extreme PC-6400 @ 950 MHz, 2.2v
2 x 9800GTX @ 800/2000/2350 (core/shader/mem) -- vanilla editions.
1 x 150GB Western Digital Raptor (10,000 RPM)
1 x 500GB Seagate Barracuda 32MB Cache
1 x 160GB Barracuda (IDE)
Lite-On CD-DVD+RW Combo Drive
Creative SoundBlaster X-Fi XtremeGamer
Antec TruePower Trio 650w PSU
Antec 900 Case
windows XP/Vista 32
Logitech z-2300 2.1 Sound System
Samsung 226BW.

Few Side notes: I get 20k in 3Dmark06 with my setup...
I also get 60.xxx FPS in Crysis Benchmark Tool

Also, what do you guys figure this might be worth... 680i, 9800GTX's are brand new, as of a week ago..

Nice board, and great top of the line Processor, RAM is great, video card is a really going overboard.
I would say in order to cut costs, get an OEM Version of Windows XP, but this means that the computer must have no previous OS, and that you will most likely have to install it to a IDE Drive, since there are many problems with it booting off of SATA, and you will get no MS tech support. I would get Vista but even in my build which I am planning on, it really brings up the price.

I would say around $1200 to $1500.
Have a nice day

The graphics cards themselves are like 700-1000$ depending on where you purchased them.
I'd say it's worth 2000$,
Move the RAM up to 4GB or even 8GB and get a new PSU, 800-1000W and that's be a nice PC. 8/10.
