Yeah it does not SOUNDS very powefull, but who cares. GTA IV, Crysis 2, Witcher 2 and whatever you want to name, all at max or ultra with "acceptable" >30fps average. It works, and i'm not about to spend enough money to buy a good used car just to get a few more FPS.

I'm still in the process of ordering it/putting it together/paying for the thing (going to be $1500 total), but it's going something like this:

Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair V Formula AM3+ AMD SATA 6Gb/s, 3-Way SLI/CrossFireX Support
CPU: Eight-Core AMD FX-8150 Zambezi 3.6 GHz Socket AM3+
16 Gigs DDR3 RAM
Graphics: GTX560 (overclocked)
80 GB Intel boot drive, Seagate 1 TB Data drive
Fans: To be decided, probably 2 Noctua 120mm quiet fans
Antec 1200 Watt Power Supply

It's total overkill as far as gaming is concerned, but I'm using this computer for a lot of audio processing as well, so I need the brute force of 8 cores. I could have gotten an even faster 4.2 GHz 4-core Processor, but I wanted the extra 4 cores.
