Its like 3 A.M.. anyways there's got to be someone on.
Hardcore gamer: games, games, games as in no video editing/encoding, converting, photo shop and whatnot
These are the two procs within my budget E8500: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037 & Q6700: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115027 from what I understand both have good OC but the E8500 performs better in games right?
Video cards: right now I got 2x 8800GT and am upgrading from an AMD to intel to see if the performance difference satisfies my current demands for performance. if not, oh well I don't need help in this category
Mobo: I think i want a 3-way SLI capable of handling the upcoming 45nm quads
case & PSU: Already got them no help needed here
memory: haven't got to research this yet. does the memory speed have to match the FSB at all or just meet the standards of the board?
