Forum Systems : New Build $1,360 gaming pc

Hey forum!

I'm planning on buying a new pc but have no idea where to begin.

I don't everything, i already have: 2 HD drives of 300 gb, cd/dvd drive.
I still have an old evga 9600gt and want to replace it or use it as sli.

I would like to upgrade to i7 and an ATi graphics card.
I will buy it in Holland but you can use newegg.com to make the build.

i hope i didn't forget anything, and all comments are helpfull.

thy forum!

my res is 1920x1080
im planning to go either way, i think ATi is better then Nvidia though so probobly crossfire.

and overclocking is a maybe.

but ill look at the build you gave me..

oh and ill say i think im getting a cooler master storm scout case.

Reply to idoop

if your are going to overclock search for the cm hyper 212 plus and put 2 fans on it and it will beat some 60$ coolers

the scout is an awsome case and if you remove that ssd you can get the radeon hd 5970

Reply to mrhoshos96

yea i didnt really need an ssd so ill get the better gpu

thy for the help guys ill post my build when done!

ok i have my build its right here:
http://azerty.nl/winkelmandje/wink [...] =1&product[234666]=1&product[269467]=1&product[68468]=1&product[230038]=1&product[226356]=1&product[245968]=1

this is 1.144,74 euro so its 1403,22 dollar. its a bit over but thats ok

these are the newegg links:

cpu cooling: Noctua NH-D14
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] a%20NH-D14

psu: Corsair TX750W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] r%20TX750W

Mobo: ASUS P7P55D
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] -_-Product

Gpu: Sapphire RADEON HD5870 Eyefinity 6
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] -_-Product

Ram: Corsair Dominator-GT 1600 cas-7
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] -_-Product

Cpu: Intel Core i5-750
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] -_-Product

i could replace the HD5870 with a non overclocked one and oc it myself but ive never done that before. And im a bit sceptic about the mobo.
oh and the Noctua comes with fans right?

Reply to idoop

sorry the link to the site im buying from doesnt seem to work.

hope this one does: http://azerty.nl/winkelmandje/wink [...] =1&product[245968]=1&product[226356]=1&product[230038]=1&product[68468]=1&product[269467]=1&product[234666]=1

or els u can check the site its: Azerty.nl

The Eyefinity 6 5870 has 6x mini DisplayPort outputs, and has no DVI outputs. Are you sure that's the one you want? I'd think that you should just get a regular 5870 from Sapphire, XFX, Asus, or whatever you can find.

Otherwise, the build looks decent. Based on the newegg link, it appears that the DH-14 comes with fans, as it lists 2 different size fans in the specs.

Yep, the NH-D14 definitely comes with 2 fans.
