Hi
CPU = amd 955
PS= 500w
VID = gt460se
Memeory = 4gb ddr2
mb = MSI k9a2 cf
I currently have an amd 955 cpu and is Overclocked to 3.6ghz with stock cooling. CPU temp hits 48degrees on idle, prob around 50mark when playing games.
I know for sure once it hits summer the cpu temp will raise much more. i dont plan on upgrading my mb/cpu until next yr when diablo 3 is out. I also dont plan on Upgrading My VGA until next yr. However next yr i do plan on getting 3x or 2x high end vid cards and xfire/sli them with new MB/CPU upgrade.
As for now i really want to buy the nzxt phantom case and purchase the corsair h100 hydro cooling, i need a good cooling unit since i have OC my cpu. As for the Power supply, will i need a new one for the hydro cooler??
If i do, should i get an 850w psu or 1000w psu? keep in mind i plan on xfire next yr with either 2x or 3x vdu cards.
A big question, is if i purchase a big watts PSU will it burn out my system with its current specs since it seems like an overkill in watts considering i have old parts in there for now.
