I made this build for a friend. He has a budget of $3000 (I guess he isn't hit by the recession). He does video editing (HD video) and wants to play all games maxed out at 1920x1080 for the next 4 years. Here's the build:
Code:

i7 920 (I will OC for him)
12GB of DDR3-1866 RAM
GTX 295
3x1TB WD Black (in RAID 0)


He doesn't have a PC at home now, so he needs a monitor and other peripherals. How is this build?

High-End i7 Build

Rather lame keyboard/mouse, imo.

Although that's insignificant Smile

Why? They're the same resolution (1920x1080).

Maybe because their 2" larger?

The ram is overkill, not the size but the speed.
You would never need that speed.

Take either 1x of these:

or 2x of these (better):

Get a Razer Mamba and a Razer Lycosa instead of the keyboard and mouse you chose Wink
