Default My New Gaming Rig

Lo,

I'm looking at building an ultimate PC for gaming that should last me a good few years.

ATM I'm looking at buying the base stuff from cyberpowersystem.co.uk (Yes, I'm British... ) and extras from ebuyer.co.uk

For £2,400 I can get:

Case: CoolerMaster Mystique 632 Tower 420W Steel Case (Black Color)

CPU: (Quad-Core)Intel® Core™ 2 Quad Q9450 @ 2.66GHz 1333FSB 12MB L2 Cache 64-bit (Should be able to OC to 3.2 min from what I here...)

Cooling: ASUS pre-fitted, ready sealed liquid cooling system. (Never needs any work doing to it)

Power Supply: Tagan 1300W TG1300-BZ PipeRock Series Modular Power Supply

Motherboard: (3-Way SLI & QX9650/Q9770 Support) MSI P7N Diamond Nforce 780i SLI with Creative X-Fi Sound Card LGA775 Mainboard FSB1333 DDR2 3 x PCIe x16 SATA RAID w/ USB2.0, IEEE1394, & 7.1Audio

Memory: (Req.DDR2 MainBoard)4GB (2x2GB) PC6400 DDR2/800 Dual Channel Memory (OCZ Nvidia SLI Ready Edition w/ Heat spreader)

Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB 16X PCI Express

Monitor #1: Samsung SM245B 24" 1920 x 1200 Res

Monitor #2: Some ****ty Phillips one

Hard Drive #1 : Single Hard Drive (150GB Gaming Western Digital Rapter 10, 000RPM SATA150 16MB Cache WD1500ADFD)

Hard Drive #2: Samsung TeraByte drive 7200 RPM

Optical Drive: SONY DUAL FORMAT 20X DVD±R/±RW + CD-R/RW DRIVE DUAL LAYER (BLACK COLOR)

Optical Drive 2: Sony DVD-Rom

Sound: HIGH DEFINITION ON-BOARD 7.1 AUDIO

Mouse: Logitech G9 Gaming mouse

Keyboard: G15 gaming Keyboard

Sound: Creative Inspire Inspire 5.1 surround sound speakers

Includes, Deliver and a 3 year warranty.

So my questions are:

Is it worth the money and will it last?

Thanks for reading,

FifthFreedom
