Parts Preferences: Asus Mobo, Intel CPU, Corsair RAM
Overclocking: Yes, light overclock
SLI or Crossfire: Yes, when I can afford it.
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional info: I have missed out on gaming from 2006 up to 2011 and I'm going to use Photoshop CS 5 too. No need for 3D though. Here in SA, anything more than R2500 are considered to be a lot of money.
