Hello all, i know these new computer threads are endless, but i appreciate the help. I'm looking to build a new computer for Christmas, and i really don't have a price limit on the parts that I'm going to be buying. I'm looking to be able to play on max settings on plenty of games. I also do video editing, as well as some after effects / photoshop / cinema 4d work. Please help me out. I've had a few friends compile this build for me. Please don't hold back from telling me what i should get or should not get, thanks! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115202 i7 920 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835207004 heatsink+fan http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128362&Tpk=ud5 ud5 mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136284 1tb western digital hdd http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151173 samsung dvdburner http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139006 corsair 750w 80+ xfire/sli ready psu http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145220 corsair 6gb (3x2gb) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130398 evga gtx 260 core 216 896MB (I am still undecided about a case)
I've made some updates and changes, and this is what i have so far.

The... CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply - Retail Is a good unit...If you want better...I suggest you stay with Corsair just more watts.
What cases are compatible with my build, and is the Newegg.com - Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer 7.1 Channels 24-bit 96KHz PCI Interface Sound Card - Sound Cards a sufficient card?
