A budget of $1,900?

This is what I've come up with.

If you are willing to go a little above 1900, you cen get win 7 pro, which has the supposed "XP Mode". Its not a nessesity, but...

Ah, yes, I forgot DSO had the eyefinity 3 port edition. Im not sure what adapters it comes with though.

I would go down to a 1 tb hard drive, but make it the 64 mb cache,

Go for the LE edition motherboard, unless you arent going to upgrade in the future,

And go with a corsair PSU, because they are more reliable.

The rest looks awesome!
Whats the final price?

If you are thinking of going CrossfireX in the future, the LE is for you, but if you are going to keep the 1 card, the micro is good enough. The psu really doesnt matter too much though.
