Hi guys. I want to build a new gaming rig. I want to buy the following hardware for my PC.
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550,
Biostar G41D-M7 Motherboard,
4 GB RAM,
500 GB Hard disk,
Nvidia Zotac 9800 GT 512 MB GDDR3 Graphics card,
22X Dvd writer &
A PC case with 400 W PSU.
My questions are,
1. Will a 400W PSU be enough for my hardware? (Or should I go for 500W or higher?)
2. Can my old 17" CRT monitor work with the Graphics card?
3. Can I play all the new games for next 4 years at 1280x1024 resolution with this hardware?
4. If I buy a 1 GB GDDR3 card instead of 512 MB, will there be a good performance boost?
If you have to offer me any other suggestions about my hardware, I'd be very happy, Thank you...
