You're getting one standard tv graphics card, for a high end computer with 3-sli? You might want to match that up. If you're a really hardcore gamer you might want another monitor, or 64 bit. Imo I'd get a second hard drive and graphics card if I was buying that.

Barebones second opinions

Barebone Kit Completion- Need Second Opinions

 

1st- If you are buying a component, such as as EVGA GPU be sure to determine if the barebone provider is on the EVGA list of approved sellers. Tiger Direct, for example is not, so no Lifetime warranty or extended yrs.On EVGA components.

 

2nd- I would suggest loading xp pro 32 first then vista ult 64 in that order. Then you are covered on 32 & 64 bit games till win 7.

 

3rd- Don't forget Spyware & Anti Virus apps. Tiger direct & buy.Com has specials $0 w/rebate once/twice a month.

 

Goodluck
