New AMD Build. Pls Comment

Well could you specify from where you will be buying those components from...
The setup looks good...
But I doubt the 400W would be suffice for dual 4770s...get atleast 500/550W above psu with 2x 6 pin connector...

I would spend a little more,just to be safe,and get a 550watt PSU with 40+amps on the 12volt rail.A good rule I use when buying a PSU is to get one with 25%-50%more power than what would just get you by.Doing this insures good,clean power and less load/stress on the PSU itself,giving you a longer life on the psu,with less chance of errors resulting from too little power.Goodluck.

2 HD4770s only use ~100W.

I am located in the Philippines. I am buying the parts at a local shop here at slightly higher costs than in newegg. Total cost is around $710 USD.
About the PSU, do you think that changing it to a Corsair 450HX would suffice?
I am also considering changing the motherboard to a foxconn a7da. Any comments on this? Thanks! really appreciate your inputs.

Well checking the Corsair 450HX, it has 2 6+2pin...So it should do the job and is modular too...

Well the Foxconn a7da is a good board...but the Gigabte and the ASUS ones are better...See if you are able to get any of these boards ...

GIGABYTE GA-MA790X-UD4P
GIGABYTE GA-MA790GP-UD4H
ASUS M4A78-E
ASUS M3A78-T

If not stick with the Foxconn...

Noted. Thanks again gkay! will try to find one of those gigabyte boards you listed.

ok, so the gigabyte 790x is about $160+ here. the 790gp is about $190+, while the foxconn a7da is only about $100+. I would rather get the foxconn, as the money i save here could be used for another 4770. what do you think?

Thanks man!

To 3.4? Nah use multi and up Vcore if you have to

Well like batuchka said you wont need high performance RAM for that overclock...but it would be good if you buy RAM with heat spreader on it as it would keep the RAM cool and would be more stable...

I would go with a bit more psu

couple of other comments

I noticed you said dual 4g ddr2 - 800 kingston RAM
If you are saying you put in two 4gb kits that is, imo, wasted money. if it is just a misunderstanding and it is only 4gb total then cool. If it is indeed 8gb you are looking at then I would suggest dropping it to 4gb w/ tighter trimmings and or going 1066

next i'd think with the rest of your components your GPU selection is a bit light. Don't get me wrong a 4770 is a nice card and I would love to get one personally but , the rest of your specs over match it. Yes if you want to crossfire them it would be way sweet but until you do I think you will be wanting a bit more (unless you are running a 1280x1024 res on a smallish screen).

My opinion drop the extra $50 for the 4870.

If you are dead set on the 4770 i'd say go with a FX mobo w/ 3 or 4 pci-e slots. tht way when you do upgrade to a crossfire setup you have 2 running @ full 16x16. and room for another @ 8x for future .
Even still w/ the FX I still like the idea of a single 4870 better which will leave an open 16x slot for another down the road.

buy it now 790fx am2/am2+ board $166 nd there are a bunch more like it.

The idea is that for the small extra cost now( he is already looking at $160 boards) the life extension on the gaming rig is one whole 16x extra card minimum for a 3 slot board. compared to a gx board that only has 1 full 16x slot.

there is no significant real world difference now, but a GPU or 2 down the line maybe a different story.

maybe the problem here is I look at my system builds from a future perspective, the mobo most of all. looking at a system w/ the gx chipset running at 8x8x as a platform doesn't seem like he best option to me. When you are looking at a lower end card like a 4770 you know you are going to be stopped at
2 4770 which should last a while but with the fx board you don't have to stop there a 3rd or a 4th $100 card is a cheap upgrade or you have the option to go heavier with a next gen card that requires a 16x slot. sure you say the gx can do that but then you are stuck there.

and yes you can speculate all you want about availability of fx boards and ebay availability around the world but until the originator says gee I can't get that here for a reasonable cost it is just that, speculation.

a cf or sli don't give you double the performance

i think a gtx260 or 4870 is a better fit on your system..

go for bigger watts if you plan on upgrading..

you can buy the coolers later if you're on a budget.. (just don't overclock without those)
