So here's a fun game to get some more activity in this thread:

Configure Your Dream Gaming System

The theoretical build you likely will never be able to afford (except Coyote). List the parts and their prices, and links to where you can buy them. The Master Race novices should participate as well!

Rules:
1. Build must include monitor setup.

2. With exception of the monitors, build must fit within the confines of an ATX Full Tower (Or super tower like the Corsair Obsidian) case. So, no peripherals like speakers/headset, mouse, keyboard, etc.

3. Obviously, build must be logical and realistic. Parts must be compatible and actually exist.

4. Consider gaming and overall performance to be top priority, along with top notch quality, the best money can buy. More expensive doesn't necessarily mean better.

OCN is actually doing a similar thing with dream build up to $2500. They pick a winner every month and are helping them fund it, not sure how much help they are giving exactly.

Define realistic? Should we set a budget? Probably get more varying responses if we said make it under $600 or something like that.

My current build? haha

None the less.. I'm buy a 3rd Titan with Haswell. IDK, just feel the need for 3.

My dream build would be something like 2 x 3970Xs and 4 x Titans all with AquaComputer Blocks on separate loops with 4 x D5 Pumps pushing to 4 x 480 RADs.

As for a monitor setup.. I tried Surround and did not enjoy it, at all. I much rather game on a single 1440p @ 90hz.(Not 120 due to motion blur)
