Default I finally ordered my first build!

It was a long time in the making and quite a bit of learning of the banking and online payment systems. But finally (Assuming newegg does not hate Paypal) I have ordered this beast!

MSI AM3 Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813130224 MSI 790GX-G65 AM3 AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard (1Gb of Sideport memory! This is designed for Hybrid Crossfire!)

AMD CPU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103649 AMD Phenom II X3 720 2.8GHz (Great Reviews)

Hard Drive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136218 Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD6400AAKS 640GB 7200 RPM (Your standard value hard drive that wont crap out on you in a year if it is cooled properly) (WD for the win!)

Case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811147033 Rosewill R5604-TBK 0.8mm Japanese Cold Rolled Steel Screw-less Dual 120mm Fans ATX Mid Tower Computer Case (Japanese Cold Rolled Steel... Nuf Said!)

EDIT: Memory ((DDR3 in Tri Config)) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227365 OCZ Gold 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Triple Channel Kit

This is a nearly 600 dollar build and worth every penny because of hybrid crossfire. Which will make my 4670 perform closer to a 4850 without having to buy another card (Saving funds for the next gen coming in may)

This is not one of my usual idea posts. This is actually ordered and will hopefully be here within a week! I will have expert help putting this together so nothing will be broken from my clumsiness!

Wish me luck!
