Hi, I have not seen an article on these forums, or at least none I know of for your Dream PC! So i thought it may be fun to create a thread for it. Anyway the idea is post your dream PC build, there are no restrictions, just thought it may be a bit of fun to compare and see what people come up with!
I guess I will start.. http://www.scan.co.uk/savedbasket/4186bf0686904e599c4a811fb221c01a And may the wishing for money to actually ever afford one commence
Why can I never save baskets without logging in? Anyway, is that all? 2 seperate loops - 1 loop for CPU, chipset and RAM and 1 loop for GPU's. Add on around £300 for RAM blocks, tubing, fittings, lighting and any required bits to mod for fitting (disclaimer - having never watercooled I have no idea if these will work together )
Dream PC? I built mine ( spec in sig ). Can't see any reason why I need a higher spec for my needs, and the case is a money-can't-buy item 99.9% of the time, so....
What ever the best components are at the time with an endless pot of money to keep buying it like Intel and nvidia's bitch.
Mostly my current machine, just drop in three 670s, with blocks, 360 (180*2) radiator, Swiftech ApogeeDrive II and a few other bits and bobs. Finish with 4 WD Red 3TB drives. Because I need to store all the porn Games and other files.

Geez guys : / You take all the top notch stuff, put it together in a Lian-Li X2000FN, add a Klipcsh RB-41, 3 x 23inch 120hz and the most important of all, an Executive chair
What I have now with the addition of a third monitor, more keyboards and more audio gear. Then I'll be fine.
My brother NEEDS this PC for his art institution: http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=30661628 As of writing, it's incomplete.
If i had one of these i would never leave my room, only to go bathroom and get pizza of course https://secure.scan.co.uk/aspnet/forms/swordfish/
To break the "choose most expensive parts from each category on Scan" mould a bit... One of these - http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/products/workstations/product-detail.html?oid=5230510 Replace key components with... E3-1280V2 4x8GB DDR3-1600 Geforce 780M 2x480GB SSD ... Profit!
