Mulling over something like this in my head...
Core i7 920 - $230 on eBay** (see below)
ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 - $280
Prolimatech Megahalems heatsink + fan - $75
CORSAIR DOMINATOR 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 - $210
CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W - $110
Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - $100
Total: $1005
**: I don't normally buy computer parts on eBay, but I would want to get a specific i7 920 batch number to ensure I get one which is a good overclocker. With a 920 from a good batch and that beast heatsink I'd be able to get it to at least 4.0GHz.
Any comments? I would stick with my 8800GTS until more DX11 cards come out.
