Hey, I am getting a new system settup.. actually just upgrading bassically everything in my case..

Hear is what I am thinking about getting-

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00243FPRO/ref=ord_cart_shr?_encoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance (videocard)
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B001J3U4LC/ref=ord_cart_shr?_encoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance (2 of these)
http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-132-BL-E758-A1-Motherboard-Tri-Channel-Utility/dp/B001KX8VES/ref=pd_cp_e_2 (motherboard)
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B001H5T7LK/ref=ord_cart_shr?_encoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance (processor)

1. What else do I need to upgrade in my system?
2. What type of cooling do I need for all this crazieness?
3. Is that motherboard good?, dont really know much about them
4. For a videocard, does a really good one increase proformance or does it just make it look nice, and I can just stick with a standard Nvidia that I already have?


Thanks so much, I 4 box shamans, I can do pvp with all 4 already somehow with my bad system, but I need to have it crystal clean to increase past 1700 or w/e in arena and to feel organized.. will this setup bring the punch that I need for 4 shamans?

Id look at MB reviews. You dont need 3 X SLI. The asus P6t or whatever is used a lot.

Yur on the right track with I7 (920) and X58 though.

Use Win 7, 64 bit.

Get 6-12G ram.

Get Video Card with lots of ram (1G plus) (one), nvidia based is a bit better I think.

Maybe Raptor HD, maybe not ...

yur gtg.

I use thermaltake Big Typhoon but they have newer now. I use video cards with heat pipes and mount a 13cm fan above that.
