690 is overrated and a dual 7970/670 setup will be just as good with some healthy overclocking
and an AMD processor on a goddamn $3000 setup? just get an i5 or maybe an i7
plus why the hell do you need 32GB of RAM?

No major business or company will hire contractors that are not insured, of this I am 100% sure.

I wasn't asking for help nor advice, I know what I'm doing and have experience with every one of these parts. The FX will preform just as well as an i7 when I overclock it, and the 690 will do just fine compared to running SLI or CrossFire.

If I have the open slots on the motherboard, why wouldn't I use them? I have the money and if it needs be, I can remove the RAM and use it in future builds split evenly.

Loving the sarcasm, because I defended my build with logical and legitimate proof all of the sudden I am in the wrong?
Good logic there bud, glad to see your kids can't handle being wrong.
