[obsidian86]

a nice AmdTel build

but i'd suggest

this

COOLER MASTER HAF 922 almost as big as the haf 932 and without the Amd branding
seagate 1tb
i7 930,gigabyte ud5 combo
XFX 5870
hyper 212+
G.SKILL PI Series 6GB
tx850

Subtotal: $1,600
maybe add OCZ OCZTFRZTC Freeze Extreme Thermal Conductivity Compound or Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound

the ocz is a lil better but costs a lil more but good either way you go

 

[jhoniedanuco]

thanks.. i will change my cpu to 17 930. that would much faster than the other one.

 

[obsidian86]

its actually the replacement for the i7 920 so its much newer

 

[jhoniedanuco]

im thinking of crossfire it with another 5870 in future. is my power supply can handle this?

 

[obsidian86]

yeah that can easily handle 2 5870's you can even drop to 750watts for 2 5870's and still have room to spare
