I've taken on board all of your comments and have come to the conclusion that i'll be waiting for the new intel nehalem compatible motherboards (will most likely get the next nvidia board) and as i new already i will be getting the next nvidia series card after i read some reviews on it and the nehalem cpu's.:idea:

But will still go with my "nuclear reactor" of a psu still and most other parts

but gonna keep hunting for new case ideas as i do most days lol:)

Thanks guys.:D

yeh i expect to be changing alot of stuff on my specs for xmas but thanks for the tip anyway:)

dunno about that LGA1336 mobo though cos tons of people are calling it differnt stuff and people say that all the time but i dont expect they'll change it from LGA775 anytime soon but yeh i guess you never know u could be right

THANKYOU U SPYBOT_9

christ people im building a system thats going to be absolutely Future proof for gaming and spybot_9 is right what i was saying was that the 8800GT is a filler card for me and will be going with 2x280's in sli and wrong case soz i meant the : Antec 900

and DDR3 as spybot_9 practically stated again if i want summin future proof i need DDr3 especially with the 790i and i went for the 790i because it wont bottleneck any of my other hardware and has true pci-e2.0 in 2 of the 3 pci-e slots.

So also im gnna need that "nuclear reactor" of a psu for quad sli and the future cpu's maybe c'mon people think about it before u attack me plz lol

im also thinking of liquid cooling it but if not ill just go with alot of quiet fans (b ut the antec 900 is pretty cool anyway)

I wouldn't say there's no point but i mean with Nvidia u've got the 8800's and the 9800's with just like 5 frames more than the 8800 series if we're talking crysis and with ATI we've got the 3870 HD which is again powerful but im waiting for the next series of cards coming around xmas time when im building my new rig its gnna be sweet!!!:D

these are the specs:-
