Sounds like it would be a really beast setup!
I'm guessing about 3 or 4k for that build.

For the cash you're spending, get better sound. Get a home 5.1 hi-fi system and spend some money on sound-proofing.
Also, PIPE-DREAM.
The price of that is about £2,400.
I used an online configurator thing and thats what i got.
Just for fun! LOLZ!!

FVCK YOU.
And here I was gonna ask for pics when you finally build it.
BTW, I spotted an actual flaw with your build: The PSU is seriously underpowered. You are running a pair of 6970s, and I'm afraid 650W might not cut it.
Title says it all , oh and pics would be nice as well
Let's start off with mine:
- CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955BE Quad Core @ 3.8Ghz + Zalman CNPS10X Quiet cooler.
- Motherboard: Gigabyte MA770-UD3P.
- RAM: Corsair Dominator 4GB DDR3 1600mhz.
- GPU: ASUS GTX 560 Ti oc.
- Two Western Digital Green HDDs one 500GB and the other 1TB.
- Thermaltake V9 BlacX Edition case.
- Samsung BX2450 1080p LED monitor.
- Windows 7 64bit.

Crysis 2 with the dx11 patch is very demanding I get 30-35fps on ultra, but it looks soooo good that I can't lower the graphics to get smooth gameplay even in multiplayer

Nice rig, for non-gaming use it's waaaay more than enough.
for gaming, it just needs a new graphic card.

Thanks! I've been considering a new graphics card, mainly for more outputs not for gaming, that way I can eliminate my USB to DVI adapter, not sure I want to drop the money though.
Here's my gaming rig (oddly enough, the only gaming I do on it is minimal CS1.6):

Why 460? 465 is better . I got mine today, but got the blue PCB one so I requested an RMA so I can get a black PCB and make it a 470
Does anybody else here have their system dual boot with OS X? It would be cool to see what components your using with it.

What? no! the gtx 460 beats the 465 in pretty much every benchmark out there, plus it's runs cool and consumes less power.
Anyway enjoy your gtx 470.

Love these threads!
Cause i just always have the worst spec! Even when ive spent a fair bit of money.

Not really a gaming PC, but it was cheap and I was to lazy to build myself. The GT 420 is horrible for gaming, but I'll replace it with the HD 6570 low profile soon enough.

I'll go ahead and say this so it's clear. I'm not using a pirated copy of OS X. I have a Mac Mini that crapped out on me, and I don't really feel like spending money to fix it or buy another one, so I found a way to not let my authentic OS X Lion and license that I paid for go to waste.
So like the title says, if you've built one of these amazing machines, what hardware did you use? There is a good bit of hardware that works perfectly, and there is a lot that doesn't. Luckily I've found a perfect combination to run OS X flawlessly.
There is no need to go into the method in which you installed the OS. I'm just interested in how creative you guys are for the hardware aspect of it.
These are my specs:
Build name - HOLLOW-X
Case - APEVIA X-Dreamer 4 case with 7x120mm fans and 1x200mm fan (blue LED)
PSU - Rosewill HERCULES-1600 (1600 watt)
MOBO - ASUS P5Q (With modified BIOS for OS X to boot with AHCI configuration)
CPU - 2.66GHz Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 (clocked at 3.1GHz)
(Reads as XEON on OS X)
CPU Cooler - Thermaltake Silent TMG i1
Memory - 16GB G.SKILL DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
Graphics card - SAPPHIRE Toxic Radeon HD 5850 2GB GDDR5
Disk Drives:
Pioneer 16x Blu-Ray/DVD Writer
LG Blu-Ray ROM/16x DVD Writer
Hard Drives:
250GB 10,000RPM Western Digital Black Series VelociRaptor (Retail OS X 10.7.2 Lion)
1TB Western Digital Scorpio (Windows 7 Ultimate)
320GB Western Digital Caviar Blue from a WD My Book (Kali LINUX)
500GB 2.5" Western Digital Scorpio Series with ICY DOCK USB enclosure
(Has a railed Caddy system to hot plug the entire enclosure, and other 3.5" SATA drives as well, into the computer case)
A lot of people that hear the specs say stuff like "That is a pretty awesome gaming rig"
What's funny is... I don't play a single game on any of my computers. Lol
Installer written using a MacBook Pro, no pirated distros (except for when I don't have access to a Mac, it's my old man's)
Well, really, it's supposed to be just a gaming rig, but everything accidentally matches up for Hackintosh except for networking
CPU: I7-4770k
Should've gone for the non-K variant, as I don't OC anyway and need VT-d support
GPU: EVGA GTX 780 SC
Very good Mavericks support, Yosemite needs webdrivers, which can be a bit laggy
Mobo: GIGABYTE GA-Z87M-D3H
Again, should've gone for the bigger non-M variant, apparently got more free drives and SATA ports are filling up like crazy
Sound: Realtek ALC892
Used Toleda's SSDT injection and AppleHDA patch. Works perfectly (STAY AWAY FROM VOODOOHDA)
RAM: 4x2 Corsair Vengeance and 4x2 Kingston HyperX
Network: Belkin USB-N300
It uses Realtek RTL8192SU (Nope not a typo, SU not CU. Weird, eh? SU is NOT supposed to be a USB adapter, but it somehow is.) Downloaded drivers from Realtek's site, works perfectly. Needs additional Ethernet kext to enable appstore. Not a native AirPort card

Hi, I'm a new Android developer and I would like to know what is a recommended build for developing applications for android like 2D games and utility apps.

Your hardware seems sufficient enough as it is.
Good graphic card always help.
This hardware will run AS pretty smoothly. In fact, it runs well on Macbook Air 2013 - but builds sometimes take quite a bit of time(up to a minute vs 20 sec on my desktop which is a monster)
You're fine. I run Android Studio on a quad core AMD from 2011 and an NVIDIA GTS 250 with 4GB of RAM.
I want to share one more thing, on Mac OS, run Android Studio with Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 for optimized font rendering. You can then configure your project to use Java Development Kit (JDK) 6 or JDK 7.
All the best. :good:
