I'll probably have to add a Synergy Pro license to the shopping list for this summer's build as well (somewhat inspired by this video). On a side note, I found out that my T7500's 1200W PSU is actually an 80 Plus Silver  Pretty nice if I do say so myself! The only reason I found that out is because I decided to try switching out my new 16GB DIMM for the original 4GB (while also doing some nominal dust control inside the case). Which means that now the 16GB DIMM can be used on the summer build

(1x) Dell Precision T7610 (barebones)                                    ::  500 USD

(2x) Dell 0G4T9T CPU coolers                                                ::    60 USD

(6x) Dell 1B3PR100-600-G caddies                                        ::     60 USD

(2x) Intel Xeon E5-2697 V2                                                     ::   600 USD

(2x) 6x4GB PC3-10600 DDR3-1333 ECC REG DIMMs           ::   100 USD

(2x) HITACHI HUA722020ALA330 2TB 7200RPM HDDs          ::   110 USD

(1x) Creative Sound Blaster Zx(R) sound card                        ::   200 USD

(1x) Synergy Pro license                                                         ::     40 USD

(2x) AMD Radeon Vega 64                                                     ::   750 USD

(1x) nVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080/1080 Ti                                 ::   375 USD

(1x) Thermal compound (for CPUs and GPUs)                       ::       5 USD

Total build cost                                                                        :: 2800 USD

If I decide to leave the T7500 alone and buy all-new components for the T7610, the HDD's will jump to 330 USD, since I'll be buying 6 of them (unless it proves to have less than six 3.5-inch drive bays). That makes the total cost jump to 3075 USD. Oh boy - the shopping list for this summer's build alone is gonna be huge  If I manage to grab even one of those GPUs before the summer begins, things will be a lot better off (and less financially taxing) XD
