My ultimate dream gaming rig!

I’ll Ahem… try and keep this realistic, but then again it is a “Dream” Pc rig, Well here goes:

Case: Collermaster 690 II advanced nvidia edition – mainly because i already own but, but the style and design is brillient.
Fans: 9X 120MM LED green fans (Every fan hole in the case filled up) and 3X 140MM base cooling fan
PSU: Coolermaster Silent Pro 1000W Modular PSU
Motherboard: Asus Maximus IV Extreme-Z Z68 Socket 1155 8 Channel HD Audio EATX Motherboard
CPU: i7 2600K Over clocked to 4.5GHZ
CPU fan: Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
GPU: Sli Nvidia GTX590
RAM: Corsair 12GB (3X4GB) DDR3 2000Mhz DOMINATOR-GT +FAN
Hard drives: 1 2TB hard drive with a 1TB Solid state
DVD drive: 1 Normall DVD drive with another blue ray
Fan controller: AeroCool Touch 2000 Fan Controller
Monitor: BenQ G2420HDBL LCD LED 24″ DVI Monitor X2
Keyboard: Logitech G19 Keyboard with Colour LCD Display
Mouse: Cyborg R.A.T 9
Speakers: Logitech Z906 Surround Sound 5.1 Speaker System
Sound card: Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series Soundcard

What to name this beast?
I Don’t believe this needs a name, As it tears through anything you can throw at it.

Why not water cooling you may ask?
The reason is because pumps are normally quite load and personally I don’t like water cooling, I would rather have fans right case you wont hear them especially while playing games with the massive 5.1 surround you wont ever notice!

Why only 2 Monitors, Why not the full 3?
Because i only like to play on one screen, I don’t see the fuss about having it spread over 3 monitors. Yes it may be more immersive but you get sides of the monitors in the way and Lots of space used. One monitor is enough and the second is just for work or chat programs while playing.

Why Havant you added any 3D stuff?
I didn’t add anything 3d as its just a gimmick, It may look great in some games and films but has the draw backs of annoying glasses and can make you feel sick after a while and headaches. I just believe its not worth the effort or money, 3D was New and cool so many years ago now, its just old and a console selling point now.

This would be my dream PC, Not only is it perfect for gaming. Its good for work as-well with perfect ram and power for 3d modelling and animation.

I’m now currently with a mod team recreating “something” (Cannot say yet, Not announced) into the source engine. I’ve been creating models for a short while with them, Here is an example of one of the ones I recently made:

This project will take a while before it is publicly announced what it is. I will be adding a few more images now and again of some model progress.
