This computer from www.cyberpowerpc.com costs $5,000. I need it %100 for now and future projects please help (YES I NEED THIS MUCH POWER AND I'M WILLING TO PAY THIS MUCH). This is the case but I'm getting it in black http://www.nzxt.com/products/nemesis_elite/. This case changes to 7 different LED colors, it's awesome.

Sounds like more like a server not a gaming platform.
I would look two key elements, graphics card and memory. The newer cards will be offering an insane amount of pipes and that is where you will performance increase, I believe there are 128 pipe cards coming out very soon.
Seems like you are spending a lot of money on something you will not need for gaming. Not sure why you would need a raid 0 or raid 1, yes it does allow backup and is easy to add a new drive if the one craps out on you.
As for the CPU right now that is not where the bottle neck is, for games it is limited at the card.
I would keep shopping and do some research as to me it sounds like you would be spending about 3000 dollars to much.

It's difficult to gauge a custom built PC that goes over $3,000. Realize that this PC has a lot of custom case modding and cooling enhancements, as well as probably some overclocking. You are paying more for looks and the quad-core CPU than the rest of the parts combined.
Beware that if it is overclocked (which would only make sense with expensive cooling) that the AMD CPU hasn't been out long enough for anyone to know what a safe overclocking speed really is. Having it set that way shortens life, though it may outlive the warranty.
Personally, I wouldn't heavily invest in quad-core until we've seen how much it really matters over dual-core. In a nutshell, I'd say you're throwing money away...

That is seriously way to much power.... How many games do you possibly need to fit on 500 GB of HD space. Just get 1 200 or 300 GB hard drive and be done with it. As for the processor...games wont be able to use all of them unless you plan on playing DOOM3, FEAR, Far Cry, and Unreal Tourn. 2006 all at the same time. And liquid cooling probably isnt necessary (although i wont admit to knowing too much about it...I also hear that they burst and ruin your computer over time) And if you want 8 GB of RAM go for it...thats probably gonna give you some speed.
Overall: Downgrade some of that stuff and make it yourself to save some money.

Buy all the parts and build it yourself. You could probably save a couple of hundred dollars and use the money to get an even better component, such as a larger montior. You can also mix and match components to fit your needs. I building one right now, but am using some cheaper graphics card and 1 300gb hard drive. With the money I saved, I used it on three additional montiors. Plus, you'll feel much better if you built it yourself. I got everything from newegg.com

liquid cooling sucks. i've got had it two times and the two cases, it became not something yet consistent headache. never lower back could I mess with it. additionally an 1100 watt ability grant is going jack your electric bill up. it somewhat is like working an area heater each and all of the time. Your speaking severe funds with that monster. there isn't any interest accessible that demands 2 8800 enjoying cards in sli to run high-quality. One 8800 will run any interest high-quality. interior the top , it somewhat is approximately bragging rights, it somewhat is why all and sundry ever buys a monster laptop like that.

Since you've asked this about 5 times and I already tried to convince you that you don't need this much (it is not even technically possible to use this much power with the software out right now), JUST BUY IT ALREADY, since you seem to have the money to burn. However I am not sure why you switched from the Intel Quad Core to the AMD FX74, the Intel beats it in benchmarking consistently.

If you say you're willing to spend that much money then go for it. Everyone says to build it yourself, which will save you money, but if you're not familiar with building computers than dishing out over $5k is your only option for these specs. You're pretty much adding several hundred dollars for the warranty and technical support

#3 is not the best out there. Get the best Core 2 Duo extreme processor.

I recently built my 4th personal rig, similar to that for about half that price from here.

and water cooled it from here

I think thats a bit overpriced.
