Def not mine...I would do a lot more with the 30k.
Seriously mate...you can do better than that.
 
Intel Core I7 2700K @ 4.5 Ghz
Corsair H100 LCS
ASRock Z68 Extreme7 Gen3
G.Skill Ripjaws X 16GB
Sapphire 7970 3GB x2 Crossfire
Patriot PYRO SataIII 120GB SSD
Seagate Barracuda XT 3TB 7200 64Mb Cache HDD
Corsair HX850 850W PSU
Coolermaster Storm Trooper
ASUS 12x Blu-Ray reader combo drive

Could get away with a lot less, but that is one fucking strong build.
Could drop the H100 and the blue ray drive and upgrade you to a 256GB SSD

There you go...A proper build.

Looks like you won't need Joker's help then. It's a shame though, I think his built is the best here. And like He said he could even work out a better build. You should really let him help you.
 
If possible I would only get a 15-20k PC and then I would put the rest away for a new PC in 2 - 3 years. The difference between a 20k and a 30k PC won't last you more than 2 years, it will probably only last for 6 months.

Actually Joker pmed me , his advice has been great.
The motherboard , pc case and the memory are from his recommendations.
Im still open to suggestions .

As for the physical building of the pc , I will be doing that ,
ive been a long time pc gamer , just the last few years ive lost track of hardware available and performance builds.

asus x79 board 3.3k
G.Skill RipJaws Z 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 1.2k

I'd never get myself to build a 30k PC even if I had the money...
btw is there a timelimit in which you must use the money?

I have to agree. I'd spent at most R10 000. And use the rest on other things.

If money really wasn't a concern (because I won the lottery or something) I actually would buy a top end pc. Don't understand why anybody wouldn't.

I think that the insurance policy will pay out the price of the replacement PC, so anything spent under R30k gets wasted. Could be a different kind of policy though
