Okay, I am currently serving in Afghanistan. I have been here for three months, I come home April of next year. I get out of the Army a few months after we get back. In saying, I plan to start a Digital Media company when I get out. The business will include, Audio/Video Recording and editing, Music Production, 3D/ 2D Graphic Design, Photography, 3D Animation, Software programming, Game Programming, Web Site Design, and web site hosting. I have a team of 6 people who know a little about each subject, maybe not experts but enough to get things done. All this time that I have been working with computers, I have yet to build one. So I have put together a list of components that I thought would create a rig capable of doing these tasks. I was hoping to get a little help with this one before I start purchasing, as the total price is $6,500. Here is the list of parts that I came up with:
4x Ultra Thermal Memory Cooler with Heatpipes
6x ThermalTake A2427 Cyclo Hard Drive Cooler
ThermalTake Big Water 760i Liquid Cooling System Kit
Ultra X3 ULT40064 1000-Watt Power Supply
Philips SPD7000BD Retail Blue-Ray Writer
6x Hitachi Deskstar 7k1000 1000 GB Hard Drive
Transcend 2.5” 8GB Solid State Hard Drive
Creative Labs SoundBlaster X-Fi Elite Pro
2x EVGA GeForce 9800 GX2 Video Card – SSC Edition
2x Patriot Extreme 2048MB PC15000 DDR3 1866MHz (2 x 1024MB)
Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9775 Processor
XFX nForce 790i Ultra SLI Motherboard
ThermalTake VG4000SWA Xaser VI ATX Full-Tower Case
My question is, are there any recommended parts over what I have selected? I would appreciate any advice (except, ATI or AMD...lol). Thanx in advance - Derek
