Hello all. I just built my first system and stats are as follows:
CPU: Intel 3770K Ivy Bridge (Not overclocked yet.)
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77X-D3H
PSU: ThermalTake SMART m850w
Storage: OCZ Agility 4 120gb SSD for OS. (Win Ultimate 64)
Western Digital Blue Caviar 1tb 7200rm HD
Memory: 16 GB (8x2) G.Skill Ares 1600MZ
Quite a rush to actually put my own rig together! My question is this--- I'm currently using the vid card I had installed in my previous setup, an eVGA 8800GTS 320mb. For what I'm currently using the system for it works just fine, but soon I plan to buy some high-end, graphics-intensive games and will need to replace the card. With a budget of $250 or less what are my best options? Please give rationale. I will also be using this computer for some light video editing, etc. Thanks in advance!
