That is a pretty sweet setup. If I am going to shell out $8000 for a PC I would probably go with the $500 paint job too. I am so glad to see the ATI graphics in it instead of the highly overrated Geforce 9800's that aren't worth the price.
I was already running crysis at 60+ fps before my 780i board died...
On the highest settings? Really? >_> What did your rig have in it?

Predicted this would also be said...actually I said within this week people would be moving on to other things now that there's something on the market that can be bought without modding that runs Crysis to the extent that this does.
The only reason I mentioned it to begin with was for the fact that it's more or less a unified benchmark among people for the time being. Sure there are plenty of games that are more intensive now but it's easily the most well-known to those that look around for benchmarks often.
My rig when I was enjoying crysis had the following:
EVGA 780i
Intel Q9550@4ghz
8gb (4x2gb) Corsair XMS 2 DDR2 800 (had this running 1:1, but I don't remember what the oc was)
EVGA GTX280x3
Western Digital 320gb
Since my mobo died (and one of my 280's..) I switched over to a single card setup. I don't game too much anymore so meh. Now I'm on a Gigabyte EP45-DS3R and only 1 GTX280, but it still works wonders.
Intel Core i7
