    How would you rate this Bulldozer Build+ AM3?

    I have recently built a system for myself. I like the system specifications. I have assembled the system very well according to my needs. I have mentioned my system specifications below,
    Code:
    • AMD FX8xxx 95w $290
    • Gigabyte 990FX UD3 $150 N82E16813128514
    • GSkill 2x4GB 1866 $70 N82E16820231455
    • Cooler Master Elite 430 $50 N82E16811119227
    • XFX HD6870 ZDFC $167 N82E16814150521
    • SeaSonic X650 Gold $140 N82E16817151088
    • OCZ 120GB Vertex 3 $200 N82E16820227706

    ----
    $1067
    I have also mentioned the prices that I had paid for the components. I have not installed any optical drive intentionally. I am planning to add disk drives later as I don’t see any need currently. Also, I am planning to have 990FX chipset for future crossfire. Till now total I have spent around 1000 dollars. I am not sure whether it is worthy or not. I would like to hear from you all that what do you think about this built and how would you all rate it? Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Well I think the system specifications are quite good except the HDD. I think the storage capacity of the hard disk is quite low on space. You should have got a better hard disk. You just had to spent few dollars and everything would have been best. I think the overall specifications are very good. You can make edition or modifications in future as you need.

    I would suggest you to get the samsung spinpoint f3 1TB @ $60. It would be very good for you. Speed is 7200rpm 32mb cache and sata II so it works on older systems as well as new ones. Motherboard no doubt seems to be very nice.

    Well you can do whatever you want to but before anything don’t forget to consult the expert. You are saying that you will be adding an optical disk drive later so I think that it is a good idea. For future crossfire, if you want then you can add this 990FX chipset for crossfire in future. Let me tell you that for this chipset you need to have little compatibility thing in mind. It is compatible with AMD Athlon, AMD Athlon II, AMD Phenom, AMD Phenom II, AMD FX
