Quiet Gaming System ~$1200

Last response: in Systems
Share

Approximate Purchase Date: Within the next week or so

Budget Range: Roughly $1200 USD

Parts Not Required: Monitor, Mouse, Keyboard, Speakers, Sound Card, DVD, Storage HDD

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg/Amazon/etc are fine. I live in New Zealand so will be using the parts/prices as a guide for shopping here.

Overclocking: Maybe, i've never overclocked a system before so am rather hesitant to attempt it.

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe, what ever works out best.

Additional Comments:
Ok this comp will be mainly for gaming. The Witcher 2, Elder Scrolls: Skyrim are what i'm looking to be able to play maxed out.
But it also needs to be quiet as well.
I'm fine to attach aftermarket coolers to my CPU/GPU so that's fine. But i just hate having to crank up the fan speed when i play demanding games and listening to it make so much noise.

i also have a Cooler Master HAF ATX Mid Tower Case which i could use again possibly, but i'm fine getting a new one.

Thanks. ^.^

ok do you have a new p67 motherboard where in the preferred graphics slot it says nvidia? also if you intend to sli in the future crossfiring has more problems than sli sooooo.... :) 

I'll be able to post the exact specs when i get home from work. But from what i can remember:
CPU: i5 - 750
Ram: just some budget stuff, 4gb worth
Graphics card: ATI 4850
HDD: 2x Western Digital 500gb
Mobo: some Asus one, has 2x PCI Express slots
Soundcard: Asus Xonar DG
Can't remember the brand/wattage of the PSU, but i remember it was good enough to run 2x 4850's in XFire.

I brought it ~18 months ago.
