Waste of money. A 7950 with a GTX 670? Makes sense, CrossSLIX.
16GB is overkill, 8GB is adequate for gaming,general use and some rendering.
Would of went with a 1TB Western Digital Caviar Black because I know I would have good performance and a reliable HDD.
Why do you need a soundcard?
Waste of 100 or so for buying Windows 7.
I'm guessing they are building it for you which is just a waste of money. If you are willing to give us a budget we could make you build and all you need to do is order the parts and build the computer. Or you can take it into a local computer hardware shop and ask them if they will build it for you, obviously this will cost you.

You can get all that if you want to build a pc and it would be alot cheaper and if you decide to build one go to newegg.com they have a lot of the stuff you need.

If you build your own you can get the exact same specs for less. I'm assuming this is a pre-building service. There's also no SSD.

Just no.
You don't run an nVidia card with an AMD card, you get either one or the other and either CrossFire or SLI - so you either SLI the 670 or CrossFire the 7950. You're wasting money as they are not even running together. The only reason you would do that is for PhysX and you can buy a cheap 100 pound nVidia card and then you can run games with PhysX
VRAM doesn't stack end of. Even if you do run it in CrossFire or SLI that doesn't make it stack so if you have x2 2GB GTX 670 it will only use 2GB no matter how many you have, if you have x2 HD 7850's you will only use 3GB no matter how many you have.
You won't use 16GB but seen as it's so cheap it's stupid to call you stupid.
Some reason I think you just went on the site customized a PC to try and make us 'jelly' when really it's a fail.
The thing I applause you on is the CPU, it's great for gaming.

There's no need to have have an attitude like that. Just be nice and tell him why he should do certain things.

TBH Im not trying to make people "Jelly" Im trying to ask to see if people can tell me what parts i need that will be cheaper and better, This forum is called "PC Support" Not "Be a dick and take the piss" Get off my thread if your just going to be a dick about me asking questions because i know im not the best with PC's but i sure as hell know how not to be a dick because someone knows less about someone else. Get off my thread.
