Advice on building a new computer?

Hi everyone,





My current computer, which I built in 2003, is currently on its last legs. I only build a new computer once every 3-4 years or so, so when I build one, I like to spend a little bit more money for parts that won't be outdated as soon as I buy them and parts that will last.





I spent some time reading reviews and putting parts together. I was originally planning on spending around $1000, but after picking out the parts, the total came out to be around $1200-$1300, which is manageable.





I don't really play many computer games anymore, but when I do play them, they are pretty graphic intensive (flight simulator, company of heroes, etc) and I would like to enjoy them when I play them. I also work from home most of the time, so it is very important that I have a computer that is reliable. I am not planning on overclocking or messing around with any of the factory settings. I have been building computers for myself for over 10 years, so I am very comfortable with putting the computer together.





I would very much appreciate it if someone can please look over my wishlist and let me know if the selection that I made will work well? Also, for the motherboard that I selected, once prices on the other I7 chips come down, is there much room for me to put a faster chip into this motherboard?





Here is the list of the parts that I was planning on buying:





CORSAIR DOMINATOR 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Triple Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TR3X6G1600C8D





CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply

EVGA 896-P3-1257-AR GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 Superclocked Edition 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card





Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case





LG 22X DVD卤R DVD Burner Black SATA Model GH22NS30





EVGA E758-A1 3-Way SLI (x16/x16/x8) LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard

Thank you in advance.Advice on building a new computer?
well thas a heck of a nice machine! I would hope you have picked out a good CPU heat sink/fan..(Zalman 9900?...Thermalright Ultra 120?)...that chip gets hot! I like PC power %26amp; cooling for a PSU, 750W is good. I think a bit more hard drive is in order...look at newegg.com for a WD 640Gig or 750 for the most bang for the buck. I assume you will be using a 64 bit OS? if your going to 6Gb of RAM. Again...nice machine! Good luck!
