I just ordered new computer parts myself, 1 3870 X2 included.... I have lalso gone for the Gigabyte ODIN GT 800W ATX2.2, incase i cant resist getting another 3870X2 in 2 months, when i have heard drivers are stable and such..

Be sure to let us know how you get on, but pretty nice spec.

Try and get more out of your quad buddy, I found when my quad was at 3ghz it became quite a bottleneck! my old higher clocked e6600 performed better in games. This was just with a single 8800gts 512!
When I got my quad to 4ghz my minimum fps went up significantly in games like cod and crysis.
