Are you insane? You put together a $3,061 build... and you couldn't fit an i7-2600k in it.

Also, 1000W is fine for GTX 580's. Why did you toss a 1200W in there? o.O;

Finally, wtf @ GTX 580's... there are better ones for overclocking.

580...coz I just love EVGA...and with two of them...no need to Overclock them...I was aiming for $3k...both the 2600K and the 990X would have blown the mark...wanted to include the new Intel 510 SSD ^^

...and the 1200W for no issues at all....and Corsair don't have a decent modular 1000W-ish one :/

Again... you stupid? I said 1k is fine for his build. His build has two. Quote me where I said three. [/prepped to call you stupid again]

If I was spending $3000, I'd be getting a $700-$1000 30-inch IPS panel from Dell or Apple... Hands down that'd be in the build.
