i'm going to get a new setup soon since my p4 478 don't do the tricks anymore
but i need help in chosing some parts
the budget is high but hard earned so i don't won't to go buy stuff that is hurting my wallet to much and going to be outdated soon or for the next 3 years
i will mostly work with maya and 3dmax photoshop and other stuff encoding to and after some hard work playing some good games
but i don't need 100FPS to play a game but i still want to play crysis and need for speed with enough frames
i think of some thing like this
CPU Core 2 Quad q9550
MB Asus P5Q Deluxe or Gigabyte EP45-DQ6
Gpu NVIDIA GTX 260 or 280
Ram Ozc ReaperX 2gbx2\800
No idea for a power supply
3 hdd System-Entertain-Work
2 DVD Fast Disc2Disc Burning
so the main question is motherboard Gpu and power supply
1.MB which one should i take or are there some better options than this two
2.Gpu i looked at many Articles and all speak for the GTX 280 but the price is high can an overclocked GTX 260 keep up with a stock 280 how long will the GTX 280 last to be the most power full GPU will there be any replacement soon
3.How much Watts would i need to run this setup
Thank you for all replys
