Hi all, so I am a few weeks from building a new rig for mainly gaming at a reasonable budget. Before I get to questions lets gets straight onto the good bit with the parts I am looking at atm.
So here are my questions, Originally I was thinking of going with one of the new phenom chips, are there any advantages/ disadvantages to either, and if it was you which would you choose?
I have picked the motherboard specifically so I can add a second 4770 later on. With this in mind does anyone know if there will be any problems with the antec case when it come to room. ie will both cards fir in ok?
Do you think the power supply will be good enough to run the system both at the start and once the second graphics card is added.
generally the advantage of going with phenom is that they are better value .
If you go with the intel build then save some money and buy a p45 mb with 2 x pci-e x 16 slots . They will have plenty of bandwidth for a pair of 4770's
The psu is not a quality product .
Clean stable power = a stable long lasting psu while cheap power = bad headache
