amd 7750 build for friend

[harnar123]

Tell me what you guys think about this build. It is for a friend who games a little, but mostly office work and multitastking. That is pretty much the price range he is looking for but I was just wondering what you guys thought. One other thing, I have a hard drive, a power supply and dvd drives.

The 4670 requires at least a 400W PSU.

yep got a rosewill rp 550. What do you guys think of that mb should I just spend a extra 20$ and get a better one?

I see 2 monitors and no Motherboard

 

[harnar123]

um deeerrr. Its fixed, ok now what do you think of that ecs, it has pretty good reviews.

 

[Apokalipse]

the 4670 should use ~60W under maximum load. It doesn't even use a 6-pin power connector

* PCI-E 1.1 16X provides 75W max, though PCI-E 2.0 16X provides up to 200W. But people generally design the cards to be compatible with PCI-E 1.1

Still hung up on that motherboard, pretty much only thing holding me back.

 

[Apokalipse]

I don't like the looks of the PWM section.

I'd go with this instead:

[harnar123]

PWM? I was thinking gigabyte maybe, haven't heard much from asrock. How are their support?

 

[Apokalipse]

I tend not to go by motherboard brand, but Asrock have descent support
