COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: US
PARTS PREFERENCES: I have my heart set on a i7 920 CPU, as far as the GPU I'm thinking a Radeon HD 58XX, so here's
my first question, is the $100 + price difference between the 5850 and the 5870 worth it?
OVERCLOCKING: Maybe, but nothing extreme
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Probably, but later
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1680 x 1050
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: -Will be running Windows 7 64, so i would like 6gb of ram.
-Need help with choosing the right PSU for the two 58XX.
-I want to get a 22" 1680 x 1050 monitor (outside of the $1200 budget) any suggestions?
-Any suggestions on the case? I'm not looking for anything flashy, but i would like it to have a couple
of fans, and to be able to fit the two GPU cards without any problems
Thanks for all your help & advice.
