Im pretty sure this is what im getting ASAP, probably in a day or two. I dont think these components should be out of stock, but Id probably cry if they were, haha. What do you guys think? PSU enough? Too big?

I love that you guys added the Cosmos S, I think its an awesome case, thanks much. Of course the other cases are fantastic, but I had my eye on that Cosmos before I stumbled across DSO awesomeness and am happy it came here.

First, how in the hell did you manage to mess with the page like that? That is awesome.
 
Other than the obvious recommendation of going with Intel over AMD, your PSU is perfect for that setup considering the GPU and number of HD's.

I know, Alex and the DS web dev guys are great- and as soon as I have the money im getting that system.

But anyway, if I am gonna want another 3870 X2 plus the Barcelona Phenom in the future, should I up the PSU to 850 or what?

Barcelona are server chips that require a server mobo...

Not to get confused with Agena (Phenom quad) and Toliman (Phenom tri)
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star.

I knew that, but I was probably still confused as I thought that the revamped Phenom quad was going to be based on the Barcelona chip as well. Thanks for the info, skyR!

Ive got another question actually:

Is there any way I could have Ubuntu and Windows Dual Boot setup? I know that they dont share a common File System (except maybe FAT32) but maybe if I got em on two seperate drives?
