I'm about finished building my new desktop (first ever!). Here is what I've but it so far:
i7-2700k processor w/ Xigmatek Gaia CPU cooler w/ 1 120mm fan
ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 motherboard
8GB Corsair Vengeance LP memory
Thermaltake 850W Tough Power Grand PSU
256GB SSD (to be bought)
All the parts live in a Corsair 500r White Edition case with 4 intake fans and 3 exhaust fans.
I'm considering water cooling for fun once my next paycheck comes but until then the Gaia will cool the CPU.
I don't plan on playing hardcore video games much but if I did, I'd want excellent performance. I'll most likely being using it for normal day-to-day stuff but if I ever challenged my GPU, I'd want it to blow me away.
I'm looking to make this build as future proof as possible so I'd want a video card that would have the most recent advances, etc. I like the idea of Eyefinity for multiple monitor gaming.
Please let me know if there is anything else that'd help you recommend a video card for me. Also I'll take any recommendations on my set up.
Thanks.
