Nice rig man... i just wonder something about the soundcard - asus essence stx.
will i actually notice any diffrence in game(basicly fps)? right now im using onboard with no x-fi drivers.. (win7) im afraid for using that much money and may not notice it when gaming. Cheers

Well, it really depends. The sound card is great and made to be used with a good pair of headphones as the card has a built in amp. So this card with a good pair of headphones is awesome and worth it. If you don't use headphone look elsewhere imo. This card is great all rounder for gaming, movies and especially music :) The only con I see is that it needs its own power connector. But this good because the card will get reliable power. Hope that helps.
