Hey guys, looking to build a mostly new system to replace my ancient P4 setup. Will be getting back into gaming and will be used as a HTPC also.
Approximate Purchase Date: Next couple days
Budget Range: $800ish CAD
System Usage: Gaming, HTPC
Parts Not Required: Monitor, HDD, Disc Drive, Case
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.ca, ncix.com, memoryexpress.com
Overclocking: Yes (in the future)
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe (in the future)
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1200
Parts
Motherboard:
Asus P8z68-V Pro
CPU:
Intel I5 2500K
Memory:
GSKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB PC3-1280
PS:
Corsair TX750
Graphics Card:
SAPPHIRE 100311-2SR Radeon HD 6970 2GB
I'm a little torn between getting an ATI 6970 or a Nvidia 570. You guys have any insights on the matter?
Total : $856.00 (including tax, rebates, and shipping)
As you can see Im trying to maximize on as many deals as possible so time is of the essence.
Does this seems like a decent setup for a decent price to you guys? Anything you would add/change?
Thanks!
