That Fan and Heatsink stay it is only compatiable with Intel processors on newegg. Not sure if that's true or not though.

For the price I think he is better of getting the 750tx, strong single 12v rail and 4 x pcie connectors, for $110 (minus combo discount) its hard to pass up.

I don't quite see how the combo deal is so good that it warrents its purchase. The combo only saves $20, essentially bringing down the cost of the 4890 to $199.99 and the mb at full price, but there are 4890's on the egg now that go for $185, which is even overclocked to 900.

a 4850 will be more then enough for his current monitor, even if he upgrades to 1920 x 1200 it will still be enough for any current game (some lowered detailed then others), most will be at high or maxed settings. Later down the road he can put another 4850 and xfire if he needs more performance

If money is not a concern then yeah, go for the 4890, but I would pick up the one I linked since its cheaper then the combo discount.

Thank you all so much for your replies, sorry for not replying sooner as I was at work covering for a sick coworker. First, razrak thank you so much for that insight, you are completely correct! Mrbumbum, thank you for your reply as well, very kind of you. To Cpt Deadboots, thank you very much for that cooler and paste link, that looks excellent, definitely gonna get that puppy. Also you stated I should get a 4850 for future xfire, sounds good to me. Finally, Mrbumbum again thank you too, and I think I'll take your advice as well and be safe with the 750.


Okay so final build is:

Just making sure before I buy all this nice stuff, that is the correct video card right?

Future recommendations: Get a better monitor for higher resolution, get another 4850 for xfire. Thanks again for all the help, you guys rock!

Why do you need an aftermarket CPU cooler?

You're not OCing, the stock CPU cooler that comes with the Phenom should be more than adequate.

Tell ya what, I'll think about the overclocking especially when I need to upgrade, waha. Anyway I bought the parts yesterday and will get them early next week. I'll let ya'll know how it goes. Thanks again for all the help!

If you're bluescreening, it's probably lack of voltage, not lack of cooling. If you're bluescreening from lack of cooling, you definitely need to back off on the OC.
