Also, do you guys think I should invest in an after market cooler? If so whats best?
YES YES YES! lol...hmm cool master Hyper N 520 RR-920-N520-GP 39.99 or cool master V8 59.99 at newegg.com
*EDIT*
his orignal post is kinda missleading about the ram, he priced 8 gigs and listed 4, the ram is really only 80 bucks after mail in rebate for 4 gigs so not really much savings there.
The 470 cost more then the 5850, and unless you can show me some benchmarks that prove other wise, while it may be a very slightly better card unless you find one on sale for around the same price range its not really worth going for ( in my mind) if he was going to spend that much money he could spend a little more and pick up a 5870, which we should both be able to agree would be a lot bigger upgrade then the 470.
But definitly agree on the powersupply go with the one me and the other guy pointed out.
As far as i7 vs the 1090T I was just playing devils advicate, pointing out the other way you could go. I went the i7 route on my build but the 1090T would more then run FF14 which is what your trying to acomplish here.
GTX 470 cost 314.99 with rebate its 295.99.....ATI 5850 cost 349.99 how you figure its cheaper lmao go do your research newbii 470 killers 5850 and its almost 60 dollars cheaper lmao
