Thanks for the first responce.India has sure less equipment,like only MSI and Zotac 670's are available.

 

[TheBigTroll]

for the msi 670, do you happen to have the power edition gtx670 (it doesnt look like a box). the power edition is the one that i would get

 

[BigCookie]

Next week,when i will be shopping,i will check which they have.
P.S.- Will a 850watt PSU be enough for Two 670's and future overclocking?

 

[TheBigTroll]

get 750w and you can save a couple bucks. the 670 doesnt draw that much power

 

[BigCookie]

What about the CPU cooling and overclocking with the Noctua,or is it better to get a corsair h80? And a question about the motherboard,is it better to get the Asus Maximus V Formula or Gene?

 

[TheBigTroll]

noctua is better than h80 and much quieter

for the motherboard, unless you are extreme overclocking, i wouldnt get the ROG boards. id go with my suggestion of the gigabyte z77x-ud5h.

do not use a micro-atx board with a noctua heatsink. i guarantee the heatsink will cover 80% of the board

Thanks for the responces.will go next week with your list of parts.maybe will add another 670 for sli.also will check about the power editions,as you suggested.

you wont need another 670 until 2 years later or when BF4 comes out
