Hello!
Would like advice on how best to fill the blanks based on what I have already purchased.
I am missing:
GPU - Basically deciding between 7950,670, or 7970
PSU - Everyone dismisses a lot of psu's because of the brand, which ones are the trusted ones? How much wattage do i need to overclock this system?
Monitor - Would like to spend under 200$, i guess that rules out any 120hz monitors. Should I get 60hz IPS or TN considering i will only be gaming on this.
The games I will be playing are :
Shogun 2, Rome 2, BF3+4, Planetside 2, Starcraft 2, Skyrim (heavily modded)
Im looking to build a system that can handle these games on Ultra settings with a steady 60 fps.
