Im am buying a new gaming computer and would like to get your opinion on the specs of the system. Another key point of my buying decision is future-proofing and not having to update often(Every year). I would really appreciate your input. Also I read many reviews to help me select the hardware I chose, but lack the experience to determine if all hardware is appropriate or just overkill (aka. waste of money)
-Alienware Aurora
-Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64bit
**Thought a 3GHz processor should last me awhile (I dont OC)
-Intel Quad Core i7 960 3.2 GHz
**Looking for a change from Nvidia and their reused GPU's
**(Maybe Crossfire sometime in the future?)
-ATI Radeon 2GB GDDR5 ATI Radeon™ HD 5970 w/ DX11 support
-9GB Triple Channel 1067Mhz DDR3
-640GB - SATA-II, 3Gb/s, 7,200RPM, 16MB Cache HDD
Thanks
