So the customers who bought the other computer brought in their other computer because it was acting up. Come to find out that the motherboard is toast. They have now decided to have another machine built.

This one is not quite as wild, but still a great rig never the less.

Here is a quick rundown of the specs.

Asus Sabertooth X58
Intel Core i7 950
6GB Corsair XMS3 Triple Channel
CoolerMaster Elite 371
WD Caviar Black 2TB SATA 6
CoolerMaster 500W Extreme Power Plus.

We are going to keep most of the components from his old machine, such as the DVD burner, the other 2 1TB WD Cav Greens, and his old video card..EVGA GeForce 8600 GT 256MB. He is not doing as much with it as his wife.

I told him all he would have to do to go from a great computer to a killer computer would be to upgrade his video card and probably PSU in the future.

Total cost parts and labor: $1062.39

I will post pics and a build log next week when the part start arriving.
