rofl cant deside on new hardware

[roflstomp]

so i tripped and fell over a pile of loot today and have a 4grand spending limit for a pc moniter and so on i want the best amd stuff and a 27ish led moniter i want the best picture i can get 1080p with a rilly good picture. then i want a nice 7.1 channel system that has the clearest sound. i have mouse and keyboard i dont need those. last i need a head set that doesnt hurt my ears and has to be wireless. for the pc i dont want it built i wanta do it my self i dont want watercooling. so please dont link me the stuff off the web pages from all those highend gaming rigs that ppl built for resale.

i know this is a lot but i cant deside
plz use newegg i hate the other distrubuters

if you are looking for a top quality 27" then you are only really looking at 2 candidates:

Dell Ultrasharp U2711
or
Apple 27" Cinema Display

both have IPS panels have similar display output and are top quality - the Dell model has more options of connectivity (the apple only has mini dp input)

you would be looking at around the $1,000 mark for either of these.

OMG i love that dell one wow its amazing but would i need 2 lol cuz i run 4 on a 1920 x 1050 and the dell is like 2600x 1440 so is there a lower end moniter with that resolution?

[mikekim]

try looking for the Iiyama ProLite B2712HDS 27" - not as good as the IPS screens, but more within your budget

my friend has one, and it is a very nice screen for the price

Why does it have to be AMD? What did intel ever do to you?

With AMD right now your choices are 8GB or 16GB, not 12GB.

intel > amd

You have the budget for it

Yeah you have the money spend it on the best processor Intel. Amd is for people who are low on cash.

If you truly have $4000 to spend on a setup, wait until the Sandy Bridge platform comes out in Q1 2011 and then get the best stuff
money can buy unless AMD pulls something out of their ass with Bulldozer/Bobcat.

I will have to agree on Intel right now, Thier 6 core CPU is on the next higher level than anything AMD has. You might pay a higher price to start wtih but you will gain a large performance gain.
So a intel 980x an MB 12 gigs a 470 or two if you need more GPU (you might with the 2 big screens) a 120 gig SSD and all the audio and things you want can be done for well under $4k. Otherwise you can play the waiting game to see what the next year's gear shows up to be. If it were me, I would get the thing done for Cata!
