im about to buy my self some new parts witch will transform into my new computer.
Now...im looking for some advice if there's anything that i should change or something.
Here's what im about to buy in the following days.
Cooler Master HAF 922
Corsair XMS3 6GB (3 x 2GB) 1600MHz
Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R
PSU Corsair TX850W
Intel Core i7 920
ATI 5870 (2x - X-Fire within a month when i get my next payroll)
Now as you can see im about to get 2x ATI 5870 very soon, so what im wondering is if there's anything that i should think of??
Wrong PSU? maybe get the I7 860? any tips are welcome, OC and everything.
Sorry for some bad eng here, im swedish
i know there's alot of talk about the i7 860 beats i7 920 in tests, but what about if you OC or got 2x graphic cards (ati 5870)
will everything hold?
Don't plan on OCing a Lynnfield CPU like the i7 860, as there are issues with CPU to socket contact that may fry your hardware. Stick with the i7 920. Also take note to the achieve the 1600MHz max of your RAM you'll have to overclock your sticks.
