im looking at getting
*OVERCLOCKED* Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping (SLBEJ) 2.66Ghz @ 4.00GHz Max / Gigabyte EX58-UD5 Intel X58 Motherboard / Patriot Viper 6GB DDR3 PC3-12800C8 1600MHz DDR3 Bundle

and a 285 gtx

i currently have a corsair HX620w Modualr psu,, will it be ok or will i need a new one aswell ?

thanks
 
I don't think the gtx285 would be A good investment tbh

with dx11 cards due next year for nvdia how about buying the

gtx260 as a stop gap card till early next yeh saving you a few quid

and you could possibly wait a couple days for the i5s and see what's

On offer no harm as the bundle may go down in price if anything

biding your time would a good decision especially with MSI releasing

i5 boards with upto 55% discount and usb3 support :D

I agree the gtx260 isn't far behind the 280 at all and is like half the price. But at the same time the 4890 is only slightly more than the 260 and beats the 280 in some benchmarks, so I'd go for that.
