I want the beastest desktop ever for around 1700$.(core components only) please I am new so add any comments as to recommendations and such.
Tower: cooler master HAF X (like it alot)
CPU: going to wait for AMD's new 8core bulldozer, pretty sold on that.
Heat sink: zalman 110m fan and artic thermal paste
GPU: can't decide, I like the 6970 but is the 5970 better? I will probably go crossfire in he future when I need an upgrade. or is nvidia better for the price? Should not amd based gpu work better with amd's processor?
Motherboard : Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard (could definately use some suggestions here)
Memory: 4x4g sticks of the ripjaw. is there better? the 8gb sticks are stupid expensive so thats a no
SSD: 120g of idk because I have no clue which ones the bestest, any suggestions? could be 128 but just around that area
HD: 1tb best western 7200rpm.
PSU: cooler master silent pro 1000w
wireless cards: some rosswell 300mb/s thingy. now will this give me wifi, receive and broadcast, blutooth?
I got a computer science major friend who is going to help me build it.
any suggestions? am I ready to game it out?
