Would'nt the i7 be better for video editing due to hyper threading?

Hey, thanks for the info, would you mind putting together a little example setup of what you would have, using the NZXT phantom case ( as i really like that one ) , within a budget of maybe £1700 including monitor? id appreciate it loads

Looks awesome as hell, my only questions would be, The watercooling you've included in this, would it take much maintainance? and also, would adding another GTX 670 card in, make it last a little longer? Thanks dude

Sounds good mate, and the watercooling, how often should the water be changed?

Originally posted by Mike_Tech Shouldn't need replacing as it's de-ionised water that doesn't get Algae issues and component types are mixed so you don't get corrosion. Should only need to keep it topped up every now and again, Mike

Aww that sounds pretty cool then, Another quickie, see the watercooled tubing, what tubes do i get , so that when i put say red coolant in it, the tubes look red ?

Originally posted by Mike_Tech Yes they're clear tubes so they'll show whatever coolant you put in them and glow nicely with UV lighting. Obviously if you get white tubes you won't see your coolant however Mike

Right thats cool, all i need now is payday to hurry up and then i can get it ordered, thanks guys

I know, but luckily i sleep alot ... therefore hibernation mode begins ....
