Date of purchase: Within the next 2 weeks
Budget: $1800~$2000
System usage most to least important: Gaming(BF3,BF4,WoW), Movies
Monitor: Yes, must be IPS
OS: Yes
Location: South East Asia
Preferred website(s): None, i'll be buying from the stores here. I'm just using pcpartpicker for reference.
Overclocking: Yes
Crossfire/SLI: Yes, in the future 1 or 2 years. that's why i chose a 850w psu.
Monitor resolution: 1900x1080
Additional Comments:
-Not all brands/models available here, limited stuff. Especially gpu, cases, case fans
& ram.
-Actual budget is more, but the total price always end up few hundred USD more.
-When the item is more expensive, the larger the gap. e.g the gtx 780 cost
100~200 USD more than newegg.
Questions:
1) Recommended psu for SLI gtx 780(for future)?
2) is crossfire HD 7950 a better choice than a single gtx 780? If so, i'll get a good
120hz monitor.
3) ASUS, Gigabyte or MSI for the gtx 780?
4) H100i or NH-D14?
Thanks. This is what i come up with.
