In preparation of CV1

So during the horrible audio during game24; decided to build / finish building, the budget for some new equipment. Figured I would share if anyone is interested in doing the same; I am 90% sure that this should run the CV1 when it releases.. and if my prediction on the CV1 release date is somewhat correct, it should all fall into place like a perfect game of tetris :P

  • If you are willing to put that much money into it, at least get 980 SLI :D
  • It would be down the road after the system is bought, same thing with the controllers (ie: not in this budget). What the list didn't provide was the time-frame. Looks like it's going to take ~ 6 months to get everything :\
