I posted this on www.head-fi.org but we are a bunch of audiophiles I am posting it here as we are simmers! Thoughts please......

I think I have decided to build a computer with these parts. It will be built for gaming. ( I am a huge iRacer iRacing.com Motorsport Simulations    and flight simmer ) and for my headphone use.

I all ready have a modded x-fi as my dac ( it was the very first card in the x-fi modding thread that is about a billion pages long http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f46/hotrodding-x-fi-laymans-guide-no-56k-226975/ .). My x-fi will be hooked up to my Bijou amp made by Donald Basel.
