I have a windows 7 disc and i know some might say the psu is underpowered for crossfire. But at this time i dont see myself crossfiring so no need for a hi price psu but ofcourse i want the option. My Q6600 pc has lasted me for 4 years so im hoping this build will to and after a year or TWO who knows what ill do but for NOW no crossfire
