Building a Gaming Computer....Tell me what you think

[Luke]

^^ ok then there is no point to get that large psu (the 1010w one) because by the time you get a new card that psu will be much cheaper. So get a 650tx.

Well i found a 850 PSU for about $170 so ill just go with that one...

but other then that does my computer build look good?

 

[Luke]

dude, what is your reasoning in getting over kill psu's?

everything else looks fine except the psu....650tx FTW.

Well people still believe that Watts are still more vital than Amps on the 12v Rails which is not true at all

We'll convince him don't worry

i like the video cards but i herd that 2 9600gt scales better than 2 8800gt and it will out preform 2 8800gt

 

[veg1992]

Not so fast there

GeForce 9600 GT SLI Performance

true the 9600gt scales 90% but the 8800gt SLI is still faster

EDIT: that apparently also shows that a superclocked 9600gt sometimes beats an 8800gt 512mb

 

[philbar71]

It's close.

I still havent decided to get a 9600gt or a 8800gt or save up and get a 8800GTS (G92)

 

[veg1992]

You don't need SLI unless you have a 1920x1200 or higher resolution

 

[philbar71]

i game at 1600X1050 but i like the idear of putting 2 mid range cards together and getting uber preformance

 

[veg1992]

You won't need it, the G92 GTS is enough

but its your PC
