Hey ppl

This is my first time posting here ...
and my first build as i have always owned branded PC's
so excuse the mistakes plz..

now this is what all i plan to have:

Processor: core i7 920
Memory: corsair XMS3 6gb 1333
Cabinet: Antec 1200
PSU: corsair 850W
Vid card: HD 4870 1gb ddr5
Monitor: Samsung T240 or LGm237wa
CPU cooler: OCZ Vendetta 2
Speakers: Logitech X530
Keyboard: Razer Lycosa
Mouse: Razer Salmosa

now i wanted advice on the mobo... budget is not an issue as i would be getting the mobo from the US (few of my friends are coming back) as i have found out its way cheaper there as compared to here (ex.the P6T delx is for 21k here and 14k in the US)
i was looking at the P6Tdelx, Rampage II Extreme, and the EVGA ones

any issues on getting some parts (mainly mobo and memory or something else) from the US ?

i would use a single graphic card fr now but would later on maybe go for another one for the crossfireX

i would most probably OC (nt sure though)

i would most definitely be gaming hard

so lemme know which mobo would suit me best and besides the mobo i also wanted to know
should i w8 for the i9 expected to be out Q1 2010 if yes what would the price be like, or stick with the i7 and OC

which monitor would be better i want a full HD 1080p HDTV LCD MONITOR (i.e with multiple inputs DVI, HDMI, component,RF), i would also connect a PS3

is the 850W psu enough?

other thoughts and suggestions on other parts are also highly invited.....

plzzz help me out ppl im pulling my hair out here ...

+1.
Although i personally like Gigabyte X58 Extreme M/B.
as it has loads of overclocking details.
 
why the evga one whats wrong with "ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 LGA 1366" its available for $280 in the US
here its fr 21k just came from nehru place
and rampage II extreme isnt even available

i also wanted to know, would it be better to w8 fr the Dx11 graphic cards to come rather than gettin a GPU nw ?

and hw much is the DELL ST2410 for ?
 
DELL ST2410 is around 259$ in US and 14000 INR in india

i dont know much about ASUS motherboards....but i personally like EVGA and GigaByte...EVGA is the most luxurious and premium brand in graphics and motherboards. do check out evga web once to know all the features. EVGA | Intelligent Innovation

waiting is always an option....u should wait for DX11 cards cos they are around the corner....

ATI will be releasing HD58XX series this month while Nvidia will take a month or two to launch 300 series DX11 cards....expected starting price will be about 11k+ INR
