this is my first time building my computer from the ground up. I have done upgrades myself to my old computer in the past though. I use a lot of programs like Photoshop, Z brush, Maya ,Painter, and i have played around with UDK. My current computer becomes rather sluggish at times so i figured it was time to build a whole new computer

Approximate Purchase Date: 2 weeks
Budget Range: $1200

System Usage from Most to Least Important: graphic design , 3d modeling , gaming , video/browsing internet

Are you buying a monitor:no

Do you need to buy OS: NO


Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg is nice but any reputable site is fine

Location: Florida, USA


Overclocking: maybe

SLI or Crossfire: sli

Your Monitor Resolution: 1280x1024

Additional Comments: I just want it to be able to run these programs well and some light gaming with the ability to add in a second graphics card if i ever need more. i will most likely be gutting my old computer for its hard drive and anything else i can use

my current build is here http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1h8HI would this be sufficient for what im looking to do? thanks in advance for any help

atm i do not have the extra money to spend on a monitor so the one i have will have to do for now. I currently have a 650w PSU in the system i already have as well. i dont know much about graphics cards what is the difference between the 660 vs the 760 is it just like a newer model
