Where is the dream machine? What are we waiting for?

The HD 4870 X2 well they are already out.

But... Maybe the 7200.11 1.5 TB Barracuda Seagate Hard Drive.

I dont know but Im building a dream machine too.

HDD: 1 TB Samsung 32 mb Cache X2 ( 2TB RAID 0) 16K STRIPE.

CPU: Q9650 3.0G 12mb L2 Cache.

GPU: Sapphire HD 4870 X2 Crossfire.

Mobo: ASUS P5E3 Premium/Wifi AP Edition X48 Chipset.

RAM: OCZ PC3-12800 Intel Extreme Edition.

Case: Antec 1200.

HSF: Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme.

The Q9650 has nothing to touch than other cpus because of a software detected VID so the Q9650 doesnt need luck to overclock it, just a good motherbaord. ( I have talked to an Intel Help Representative and said the Q9650 is a different processor and the VID is not programed by any range, it has a specific voltage around 0.85-1.3625 and is controled by software specific. The E8600 VID is programed by hardware and used by software. It's different techonology on the E0 Revision of the new Q9650. My goal is 4 Ghz and is enough for me to use the Q9650 not like an QX series due to lack of using liquid nitrogen or Dry Ice. The Q9550 already hits the 4Ghz range so does the Q9450 but a bit harder or luck for a good low VID and not like the Q9650. Some software still use core sensing and due to this, it reads wrong VID. And on new Intel Cpu's the right sensing recognizing for the program to read is actually die sensing for new cpu's.

Good case
