would have suggested getting a E6600 with some GSkill HZ and overclock a tiny bit; would have saved you a few hundred quid.

Glad that you survived the illness. Now start your life anew with that beast of yours ;)
 
Like malccy said you are wasting a fair bit with that memory and cpu. Fair enough if you were going to cool with custom water or phase but a 6600 will more than likely run just as fast as the 6800 when clocking on air + the gskill kits are very good clockers and a lot less than the corsairs.

yeh but overclocking is one thing some people dont want to do..and with his system its a monster straight out of the boxxxxxxx (nuff said)

But corsair dominator memory is designed to run at far greater speeds than the 6800 at stock + you pay for an unlocked multi on a 6800. Both items are designed for overclocking

Get some pics of the beast up !!
 
Much more satisfying to build it youself than get an Alienware (or any) pre-built PC. Also if (or when) it goes wrong you know exactly whats what and where!

Lets see this goliath in action!
