Hi, everyone.
After I got great help in the graphics card department, I thought I'll post my components that I haven't ordered yet to maybe sort out one or two things.
I'm mainly looking for a future proof gaming rig, but I may also need it for video editing (Avid and After Effects) a few times a year.
1x Intel Core i5-3570K 3.40GHz (Ivybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor (77W)
1x Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Intel Z77 or Asus Z77 Maximus V Formula
1x Sapphire HD 7950 Vapor-X OC 3072MB PCI-Express Graphics Card (Crossfire later on)
1x Thermalright Silver Arrow SB-E CPU Cooler or Alpenföhn K2 Mount Doom CPU Cooler
1x Corsair Professional Series AX750 High Performance 750W Modular '80 Plus Gold' Power Supply
1x Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C10 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit
1x Crucial RealSSD M4 128GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive
1x Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache
With the case I'm considering the Fractal Design Define R4.
Haven't decided on the monitor yet.
Do you guys also know a good keyboard/mouse that isn't too expensive?
Thanks for the help.
