Have to replace some components.

The K version has an open multiplier. ie easier to overclock! For the extra R100 or R200, it is entirely worth it.

Supersweet man. Then i will get that one. I have a coolermaster V8 for cpu cooling so i will probably do some overclocking. Thanks DenSweep. Probably gonna put in the order in the next few minutes. I hope they have stock of all the stuff.

Here is what i am planning to buy:

i7 2600k
Gigabyte UD7
Gigabyte GTX580
Transcend aXeRam DDR3-2400
Gigabyte ODIN PRO 1200w

Please guys let me know quick if i am making a mistake somewhere. Thanks

Still think you need to go with the Maximus mobo. But it's just my opinion! Haha
 
Or any other Asus board. The maximus is nice, just VERY expensive. Rather consider a Asus board. There is a reason why they are number 1 in the world...

I think the maximus is like R200 more expensive than the gigabyte he's got in mind.
 
Okay. Cool. I have just requested prices from my supplier. He should send it to me soon. Jees DenSweep. Now i will only be able to order tomorrow. Flip. hahaha. I hope its all sorted by Friday.
 
hmmm. Might be haha. How did you guess? All the products are from Rectron. Dont have to buy the stuff there.
 
okay. Have decided to go for, asus maximus IV, gigabyte GTX580, coolermaster silent pro gold 1200w, i7 2600k, corsair dominator GT 4GB kit x2.

You won't regret it mate, that's one helluva beast you got going there! Congrats!
 
HAHA. Thanks guys. Also thank you so much for the advice. I have placed the order. This should be good for at least a year i would think. cool

Haha! What do you mean for at least a year? You won't need a new rig for the next 3 years... ROFL
 
HAHA. Finally got the new system. Sorry for the late reply butr i was having some problems with the raid controllers on the new mobo. It really sucked loaded windows about 4 or 5 times this weekend. Finally got it going. I will get some benchmarks going soon. What do you wanna see bench marked? I have Crysis 2, Medal of honour, battlefield bad company 2, COD Blackops, Modern Warfare 2, Starcraft 2, 3D Mark Vantge, Uniengine, if there is anything else you wanna see i can maybe get my hands on it. Going to update my sig now.
 
Well i can tell you that Crysis 2 with the extreme setting did not get less than 60FPS. I have vsync on so i cant tell you how much more i would have got. Blackops i did not get more than 91 FPS(forget if the vsync was on or off but that would then stop at 60? Right?), I found that very strange can anyone tell me why that is? Starcraft i got an average of about 120FPS on Ultra.

Please note that these are not true benchmarks for now. I was just using fraps to test what FPS i was getting. I will do proper benchmarks probably over the weekend. Do you want min and max temps aswell?
