How about...

2 x hard drives
Dual core cpu
SLI graphics
Two motherboards
2 x DVD drives
Two displays

You know... so that everyone would have a pair and not feel lonely.

So ronery... so ronery... :cry:

pointless comment

but concidering you wasted my time by me having to open my email to find a useless responce i will state why

2x dvd drives so i can burn dvd to dvd which is important to me for my job
i would say SLI or crossfire but 1.lfs doesn't support it 2. cost


and the rest is just stupid and i won't respond

LFS does support SLi/Crossfire, it's just that SLi/Crossfire usually suck.

Since you didn't give much useful info what are you looking in a new system, it's kinda hard to give good tips.

Do you need a high quality monitor? (That alone would go over your budget)
Do you play other games that would require more GPU horsepower than LFS? (Oblivion requires way more GPU speed than LFS)
How much hard drive space you require or do you need fast drives?
Etc.

You have a big budget so don't worry, you'll get a kick ass system if you know what you want. Just trying to help, sorry for being an ass sometimes.

ok so here is what i now have

cpu :e6320 or e6550 $217
Motherboard: Gigabyte p35-ds3 $179
Memory: 2gb a-data $149
Hard Drive: 320 Sata 11 $100 x2
