‎2500k + Asus P67 Sabertooth

8GB Kingston Genesis Grey 2133MHz RAM

MSI GTX 580 Lightning

2x OCZ Vertex 3 60GB SSD RAID0

Asus XONAR Xense Sound Card

Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1000W

Lian-Li PC-A77F

Custom Watercooling for the CPU

How does this sound like to you guys? Will there be a Z68 Sabertooth?
 
Unless this has changed of resent, when your stripping to SSD drives TRIM no longer works so I'd look into how good the garbage collection is on these drives before going ahead with those. You might find that if the garbage collection is poor and you overfill the drives that the performance suffers to the point where you would have just been better off with a single 128GB drive. I'm not saying it's a bad idea, I'm just saying you might want to look into it if you haven't already.

Rest of it looks mint and you get bonus points from me for going with a Lian-Li case

No news on a Z68 Sabertooth as yet, but I'm sure we'll get one some day

There have been issues with the OCZ Vertex 3.

Also for the PSU is the AX850 W not a better deal? I chose that for my upcoming build. Did look at the CM though.

Everything else looks sweeet though

I wanted the AX850 initially, but I'm going with the 1000W because I might add another 580 lightning in the future. Plus I am going to OC almost everything. As with the Vertex 3, I may wait till the issue is fixed. I'm still in the process of saving for this build, so it wont be till the end of the year when I start buying. Thanks for the heads up btw:) Cheers m8
 
Lots can change between now and the end of the year, but yeah, issues should be sorted soon with SSDs
