New gaming rig

[frenkinstein]

Hey guys, I just made this account after using this website to help decide what parts I should buy to put together my first custom gaming rig. The goal of the computer is basically just to run high end games (everything from FPS to MMOs) as well as allow me to program on it for my comp-sci courses. If I could get some feedback on how good the parts/computer as a whole is for those goals, it would be much appreciated. (Note: I'm on a strict $1000 budget, and the total as is comes to $980.00)

If not CF/SLIng, get the Pro3.

If not CF/SLIng, get the Pro3.

sorry azeem but im kinda a noob haha, which part has a pro3 model? XD im assuming its either my GPU or MoB

 

[azeem40]

Motherboard.

 

[frenkinstein]

Hmmm, by Pro3 im assuming you're talking about http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157279
the only difference between the two i can find is that the Pro3 doesnt support CF/SLI, what makes it $10 more?

 

[azeem40]

I see now, you are a Canadian. I made that post assuming you were from the USA, where the Pro3 is cheaper.

 

[frenkinstein]

wait no, i am from the US haha, the listed price for those two boards when i look it up is 129.99 and 139.99, the 139 being the pro3

 

[azeem40]

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157279 is $105. Where are you getting $139.99?

 

[frenkinstein]

oh, because im an idiot and somehow ended up on new-egg Canada even though im American haha, sorry bout that

 

[frenkinstein]

alrighty i've added that in, besides that does everything look good? nothing overlooked or cheeped out on?

 

[azeem40]

There is one thing. For one 560ti, you won't need 750W. A quality 550W PSU like the XFX PRO550 is enough.

 

[frenkinstein]

okay, i know where i can get a very good 550w power supply for pretty cheep, thanks a bunch for the advice

 

[azeem40]

Anytime. Just ask here if you have more questions.
