  1. What are you going to be using the machine for Preacher? Is it going to be a server or a gaming machine?
  2. Ok. The system is built but the watercooling isn't done yet cause I'm still working on a good way to mount the radiator and still have the case be LANable but the components are below. COOLERMASTER STACKER ASUS A8N32-SLI DELUXE AMD X2 4200+ CORSAIR TWINX2048-3500LLPRO (2GB) EVGA GEFORCE 7900GTX 512MB PC POWER & COOLING TURBO COOL 510 SLI CREATIVE SOUNDBLASTER X-FI 74GB WD RAPTOR (OS DRIVE) 2X SEAGATE BARRACUDA 7200.9 300GB DRIVES (RAID 0 IN SATA SWAP ENCLOSURES) PLEXTOR SATA DVD BURNER WATERCOOLING COMPONENTS SWIFTECH STORM CPU BLOCK MAZE 4 ACETAL LOW PROFILE GPU WATERBLOCK LAING D5 PUMP BIX III RADIATOR Right now the unit is overclocked to the memory's native frequency of 218 but I plan on going crazy once the watercooling is done.
  3. The A8n32 board should only be used if you are absolutely sure what you are doing. With all the bios variables and the adjustments you need to make you should know your way around a bios pretty well. That being said, 8 phase cooling and x16 sli are nice but you arent going to see performance from the sli with current generation games. That definitely didnt stop me from buying one though, so if you can find it and afford it, pick one up. Otherwise get the A8N-SLI Premium. The Premium board has heatpipe cooling for the northbridge as opposed to a fan and it has extra sata raid controller (SIL) i believe. Get the Premium if you dont get the A8N32
