Unfortunately it's LGA 1366 and nothing is cheap. What CPU are you using (I assume you already have it, and didn't just buy it at retail value)? Will you be using multiple graphics cards? Overclocking the CPU, and how much?

Just a quick consult before jumping on this gun.
Are there any hiccups dual screening on a 6950? ATI's not really renowned for having good drivers. I currently have a 22" running off it and I was thinking of getting a 2nd one of the same size from the same manufacturer.

No real problems. Only problem is if you have AMD Overdrive on. If you get flickering, turn it off and it should solve your problems.

The funny thing is that AMD does multi-monitor extremely well; nVidia's multi-monitor support is very poor. If you have two different resolution displays, nVidia cards get confused and run at full load even if you aren't doing anything that requires the GPU.

So while browsing I noticed that newegg has a combo deal very similar to what I was planning on building. All I would be adding is a supercooler 212+ and a dvd drive of some sort.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.791298

I am now planning on ordering this combo instead of the individual parts. Are any of the components of this parts I should be wary of? The only thing I noticed so far is a mini HDMI slot on the video card, but I can get a converter for that.
