I'm looking to spend around 1250$.
[I already own the HAF X 942 Full ATX Case]
This'll be used for graphic-dependent gaming and media.
I'm looking to build with an AMD processor, unless you can convince me otherwise.
I could SLI/Crossfire, I've never done it before.
I've built my own system before (around a Phenom X4 and a GTS 250) but it lacks some of the power (and cooling) that I really want to have.
Cold and powerful, are what I'm looking for.
If you guys could help me out that'd be great.
