-Evga W555

-12gb Corsair Dominator [x2]

-Logitech G19

-Logitech g9x

-Razer Destructor Pro

-APC 2000va UPS

-Dell UltraSharp 3008WFP 30-inch Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor

if u are not heard about Evga w555 then here is a small Intro From a magazine

-Evga W555
The makers of this monstrus mob have not surely not heard of Global Warming ,if u have any idea what goes on the mob ,BRACE URSELF for the specs ,TWO LGA 1366 SOCKETS,7GPUS,AND MOre Ram than you can possibly use
The Last time we checked a power plant was NOT included in the box SO THAT IS SOMETHING ANY POTENTIAL BUYER WILL HAVE TO ARRANGE FOR

1 EVGA W555 = $500-$600
Core i7 processors aren't designed to work in tandem though, so to really get the best out of this you'll need to invest in some Xeons.
