Hi all,
I have been tossing up the idea of the 7950, 7970, 7970 Ghz and GTX 670, but can't decide which to go for. The monitor i plan to use is a TV (37in Panasonic TX-L37G15B max resolution 1,920x1,080) and the rest of the build is:
CPU Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core £158.99
CPU Cooler Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing £25.45
Motherboard ASRock Z77 Extreme4 ATX LGA1155 £101.98
Memory Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 £34.51
Storage Seagate Constellation ES 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM £43.99
Crucial M4 128GB 2.5" SSD £79.98
Video Card ??? ~£300
Case Fractal Design Define R4 (Black Pearl) ATX Mid Tower £86.63
Power Supply Corsair 650W ATX12V / EPS12V £67.10
Optical Drive Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer £12.98
From what i have heard there will be new GPUs coming out in the next quater, will these lower the cost of the ones mentioned above by a significant amount?
I am also tempted to try my hand at OCing, but it is something i have never done before!
Also the games i mostly play are the total war games (I want to play Rome 2 on highest settings when this comes out at the end of the year) and i would like to be able to play hitman absolution, skyrim, batman and assasins creed on full too if possible.
If the GPU could last a year that would be brillilant then maybe SLI/CF at this point.
Thanks in advance!
