this sounds more like "the most expensive parts I can find and put together" PC.

the dream PC should have more character like some mods to the case. or some thing you had from your first build. or some thing that reflects who you are.

He can't even put it together anyway, he picked a dual xeon board and a 990x. He also picked a $500 membrane keyboard just to make it more expensive.

So this is probably only my second or third (not sure) time posting something on the forums but I thought I'd share what my dream PC would be. It's a gaming/editing rig. So, here it is.

 

Parts;
Case: Corsair Obsidian 900D - $440
PSU: Corsair AX1200i Digital ATX Modular Power Supply - $440
Motherboard: MSI Big Bang X-Power II - $450
CPU: Intel Core i7 4960X Extreme Edition - $1,210
Gaming GPU: Geforce GTX Titan (EVGA Superclocked model) - $1,300
Editing GPU: NVIDIA QUADRO K6000 - $4,040
RAM: G.Skill RipjawsZ F3-12800CL10Q2-64GBZL (64GB (8x8GB. Quad Channel) - $720
SSD: Corsair Neutron Series GTX 240GB SSD - $290
HDD: Seagate Enterprise Capacity 4TB (x2 or more) - $480 ($960 for 2)
Optical Drive: ASUS BW-16D1HT-PRO 16x Blu Ray Burner - $120
Total: $9,970
 
Cooling;
Custom Water Loop (parts TBD) - $?
 
Other Stuff;
Monitor: ASUS PA248Q 24in IPS LED Widescreen Monitor (x4 for NVIDIA 3D vision Surround (in 2D)) - $410 ($1,640 for 4)
DVI Adaptor: Astrotek DisplayPort to DVI Adaptor - $30
Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster Zx - $180
Speakers: Creative Inspire T6300 5.1 Surround Speaker System - $90
Total: $1,940
 
Grand Total: $11,910

All the prices are in AUD and rounded up to the nearest $10.

Now, notice that under cooling, the parts are to be decided? That's where I need a bit of help. Can anyone tell me what I need? I'd have anything and everything water cooled (aside from HDD/SSD) if I can. I'm not afraid of the cost. After all, it is a DREAM PC.

Also, if anyone else has a dream PC list, I'd like them to share it. It might give me some ideas.
