Oh last question, to crossfire the 2 gfx card, how is it done, do i just plug them straight into the mobo and its done, or is there another piece to connect, and if so is it supplied with the cards?
The AC Freezer 7 is a great CPU Cooler I run it in my computer and it is brilliant.
Cool temps even @4Ghz.
Plus he has no interest in overclocking so it will keep it extra cool anyway.
not sure how to reply to this....
erm stock cooler will keep it cool at 4.0ghz thats not the greatest thing to say about an aftermarket cooler which costs you twenty quid plus extra.
he might not want to overclock right now but from him/her choosing a k chip this means he probably will overclock in future, when he /she is more confident in doing so or needs the extra performance.
I'm all for trying to squeeze best build in tight a budget but for £2 extra out of a £1300 build get hyper 212+
anyways op has changed to hyper 212+ so erm.. yeah maybe not most useful of posts, didn't see the edit! : P

Just pop the cards into the PCI-E slots then you have something called a xfire brige to connect the two cards together.

Not sure. My Radeon HD5850 didn't but maybe somebody who has bought the card your after can answer that. Often these bridges (well the SLI one) was included with my motherboard again perhaps somebody who has bought that board can answer that.
