Hello,
I would not being doing this without this site so many thanks!
Could you look over my parts list? I am ordering next week. Thank you again!

SAPPHIRE AMD Radeon HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 PCIE Graphics Card
Intel Core i7-2600K Processor
Corsair Vengeance Blue 16 GB DDR3 SDRAM Dual Channel Memory Kit
Gigabyte Intel Z68 Micro ATX LGA 1155 Motherboard (GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3)
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler, RR-B10-212P-G1
Sony Optiarc 24X DVD Burner
Rocketfish RF-500WPS2 500-Watt ATX CPU Power Supply

I have 2 existing hard drives and I plan to run OSX Lion on one and Windows on the other. I also have an existing Antec case. The use will be 65% video editing/photoshop and 35% gaming. I appreciate any advice on the build.
 
You will need thermal a compound kit and grease. Everything else is good! :thumbup:
 
Thanks, my taxes came back today so I ordered everything through the links on this site. Hope it helps. Thanks so much for the input, I am sure I will need help once I get started! :eek:

I will be putting my old mac pro up for sale once I have the other one up and stable. I was surprised it held it's value so well. I'll have it on ebay, if anyone is interested.
