Great configuration buddy...go for it..
P.S. lol it looks exactly the same as my dream configuration

Well, if you have the money buy everything you listed. But for the graphic cards, I'd ask you to wait till the end of the september. Its better to spend on ATI 5870X2 rather than GTX295 with almost same pricing. 5870X2 will have less power consumption and DirectX11 support+better than GTX295 probably.

For monitor, consider the e-IPS panel ones from DELL if budget permits ( no doubt ). For TN panels , Samsung P2350 @11.5k would be better choice than Viewsonic.

Get a corsair 1000HX for PSU.

If at the time of buying ASUS P6TD Deluxe is available then go for it

It's same as ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 but better cooling .... check ASUS Global Website

Look for some VFM good SSD drive for your OS

SSDs still need to "grow up". GO for a 300gb Western Digital VelociRaptor as boot drive for now,,,,,,,,,,,

Thanks Everybody and sabby i will do a search for it and if it impress me i will
definitely buy that.

Best,

Also i had a Q about the my ups i am going to buy a 1 kv (1000) watt ups
is that fine for my confg ?

Well, 1KVA doesn't mean 1Kwatt But the UPS depends on your requirement. I mean do you want a UPS just to save your works and shut down ?? Then a 800VA will do. But if you want a decent back-up for this rig, consider APC 1000uxi or 1500uxi whatever you can afford.

i will go for 1500 uxi but how much backup i will get in it?

The case is a dust magnet IMO.

This would help

is that right? I think it is the best case after cm 1100 Sports. i have read so many reviews about it and the case got all most full marks in every step. But please suggest if you are facing any problem regarding the case.

gaurish thanks man.

frankly speaking, your rig is overkill for the work you have mentioned. somet things like a razer mouse or the gfx card dont make any sense to me. if you also are looking to make this rig for playing games then it is fine.

I would suggest.
1) scrap water cooling. waste of money & hard to maintain. get a true or a similar cooler.

2)Gigabyte UD5. asus is just overpriced stuff. gigabyte is the best mb maker currently. really solid stuff.

3)Raptor again doesnt make sense. rather setup raid0+1. or if you have the budget then get a ssd hdd.

4)go for an ati card. simply put, they own nvidia cards in 3ds max viewport performance.

6)Go for a corsair psu.

7)go for gskill 1333mhz 2gb x 6 kit (7-7-7-18). 1600mhz ram really makes no diff in performance against 1333. if u get a decent 1333 kit with good timings, like i mentioned above you will be fine. these sell at a very good price locally.

8)razer set is of no use for your purpose. get any decent mouse n kb.

9)get a dell 24" lcd. their service is great compared to the viewsonic & others.

10) The total usage of the system will be pretty high on load, so when the system will be rendering, the 1kva will not a give very long backup. if you can afford a 1500 then get that, otherwise the 1kva is fine.

hope this helps.

also check out samsung p2350...they look awesome

Hi thanks for the suggestions.

I am going to overclock my CPU to at least 4 ghz and ram to 1700 so that's why i am going to buy the
liquid cooling.

motherboard asus is the best i have read so many reviews about asus vs
gigabyte and the results are in favor of asus because this is the only motherboard which had True16+2 phase Power Design.

Gpu a am going to buy ATX4870x2 now

SSD is expensive that's why i am buying raptor

yes you are right i will go with corsair psu

Ram well i will do som R&D for gskill


razerset becouse i love to play games

Dell 24" is expensive so i cant buy that

Yes i am going to buy 1500va for a safer side.

And yes i can think about the new samsung LCD it looks cool in pictures

Any way thanks for the information and if any body also have some suggestions please come forward.

Best,
