get two of these if you really feel the need, but you'll still have uber system with one
depending on the space you need get one of these Newegg.com - Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST3500320AS 500GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM Newegg.com - Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST3750330AS 750GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM Newegg.com - Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST31000340AS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM Newegg.com - XCLIO GREATPOWER X14S4P4 750W ATX12V 750W Power Supply 100- 240V/ 200- 240V UL, CUL, TUV, CB, VDE, FIMKO, DEMKO, NEMKO, SEMKO - Retail
should easily handle crossfire and heavily overclocked everything
only $15 more than 520hx so its your choice
get a decent full tower, you will need one Newegg.com - COOLER MASTER Stacker 830 Evolution RC-830-KKN3-GP Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail Newegg.com - Thermaltake Armor Series VA8000BWS Black Aluminum / Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail Newegg.com - NZXT Zero Black/Silver Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail Newegg.com - COOLER MASTER Stacker RC-832-KKN1-GP Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail Newegg.com - XCLIO A380 Silver SECC 1.0mm thickness ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail
for a better gaming experience grab an x-fi Newegg.com - Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer 7.1 Channels 24-bit 96KHz PCI Interface Sound Card - Retail | I hadn't really looked at the Maximus Formula....but thats I nice recommendation. I heard they were overrated. Maybe not....I will have to check.
For the case I was planning on the CM Stacker 830 Evolution. I hate the NZXT cases, I don't know why people like them. I've never had a problem with Antec or Cooler Master so i am sticking with them.
HDD the Seagate 7200.11 500 GB so we're are on track there.
PSU I was thinking the 750 Watt PC Power & Cooling.
I can wait til February for the 3870 X2....but is the Q9450 really not coming out until March? That sucks....
