I am going to buy a PC on IBuyPower and I'd like to spend around 2000 but no more than 2500.
Ive read several posts and put together a build. Was wondering what you all think and was looking for suggestions on what I can add or change. I want to start gaming on my PC playing games like FC3 BF4, when it comes out, and other games at max settings.
The main questions I had where about the processor and the power supply. Is the processor powerful enough and will the power supply be capable of handling two of the 780's in SLI when I get a second card?
Ive put together a build and if somebody could check it out that'd be awesome!
