Hey guys I am going to build a new PC for Christmas my budget will be around £800 max. I have put together a list of some hardware options and just wanted to ask for advice on what you think I should get, here is the list:
---
6GB (3x2GB) Corsair Dominator, Triple DDR3 PC3- (1866), 240 Pin, Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 9, DHX, XMP £201.46
Vs
6GB (3x2GB) Corsair Dominator GT DDR3 PC3-12800 (1600), Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 7, XMP, DHX, DF II £191.64
---
Gigabyte GA-790FXTA-UD5, AMD 790FX, AM3, DDR3 1866(OC), SATA 6Gb/s & 3Gb/s, RAID, USB 3.0 & 2.0, ATX £140.27
or
Asus M4A79-T Deluxe, AMD 790FX, AM3, PCI-E 2.0 (x16), DDR3 1333/1600OC, SATA 3Gb/s, SATA RAID, ATX £136.38
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition, S AM3, 3.4GHz, 8MB Cache, 125W, Retail £130.33
Vs
Intel i7 920, D0 SLBEJ S1366, Bloomfield, 2.66 GHz, QPI 4.8GT/s, 8MB Cache, 20x Ratio, 130W, Retail £214.10
Asus P6TD Deluxe, Intel X58, Sok 1366, PCI-E 2.0(x16), DDR3 2000/1800/1600, SATA 3Gb/s RAID, ATX £203.75
---
1GB XFX HD 5850 Black, PCI-E 2.0(x16), 4000MHz GDDR5, GPU 765MHz, 1440 Cores, DP/ 2x DL DVI-I/ HDMI £255.97
Going to be running Windows 7 64bit ultimate and want to be able to use dx11.
I have looked at NVIDIA 295 aswell but seems expensive considering the difference in power. Also what kind of PSU I will need for this system would 500w be enough? Would also like to be able to upgrade in the future maybe add another GPU.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated thanks.
