[url]http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=5263783&sku=B69-1129[/url] Just got this email today. Looks like a solid build. Added all those parts to my cart on Newegg, and it came out to be around $1,100, compared to Tigerdirect's $900 price tag for it all. I've been wanting to make a build similar to this; same case, same RAM, and the i5 is a nice feature. I was wondering if it would be a better idea to find some more cash and purchase the Tigerdirect deal, or purchase this build: [B]Motherboard[/B] - [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157171[/url] [B]RAM[/B] - [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227316&cm_re=DDR3_dual_channel_4gb-_-20-227-316-_-Product[/url] [B]Processor[/B] - [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115215[/url] [B]Case[/B] - [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129066[/url] [B][U]OR[/U][/B] [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119160[/url] [B][U]OR[/U][/B] [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811103010[/url] [B]GPU[/B] - [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102815[/url] [B][U]OR[/U][/B] [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102815&cm_re=4870_sapphire-_-14-102-815-_-Product[/url] [B][U]OR[/U][/B] [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102849&cm_re=48701gb-_-14-102-849-_-Product[/url]

[QUOTE=devvothechav;17469483]batman arkahm asyulum (dumb name forget) uhh mirrors edge (well, not very important or evident that it is even there) fluid mark and e-peen[/QUOTE] tl;dr no significant reason to get it.
well nobody has jumped into the bandwagon yet.. so i would say, probably not now, but maybe later.
And DX11 has its own PhysX-esque feature.

That's how it is. (Only big difference is that I couldn't find a cheap 750w PSU, but it's not like you need that anyway. Oh, and I took out the extra GPU because 1. it's unneccesary and 2. the discount covers it anyway. :P)
The reason the 7200.10 isn't sold anymore is because it's OLD AS BALLS. The current generation is 7200.12. Typical way to dump old stock... I love the way TD inflates their prices to hell.
