Approximate Purchase Date: Within the next 3 months
Budget Range: Not really concerned here....we'll say under $6000
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming while simultaneously surfing the internet
Parts Not Required: everything needed, full build
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com
Country of Origin: USA
Parts Preferences: Trying to steer clear of "bargain brands"
Overclocking: Yes
SLI or Crossfire: Yes
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1200
Additional Comments: Looking for raw gaming power and longevity here. Old computer is gone and currently have no components, so starting from scratch. I have a list below, but although it is within my budget, I can't help but think I'm being wasteful when I see others posting sub $2000 gaming builds, so I would like some help "trimming the fat". There are a few things on this list I am flexible with (don't care about AMD vs nVidia) and some I am not (2 displays is a must, so is an unlocked cpu and a huge SSD)
